We did modelling with sugar paste in todays cake decorating class and here is my first ever attempt, a bear, I am rather pleased (though he looks more like a whiskerless mouse)!
Have to say I really enjoyed todays lesson, it was hilarious! Lexi came to have a go too and she enjoyed it as everybody could choose to model anything they wanted which resulted in some erm, well, very funny attempts! We both choose a bear as it was easier as it consists mainly of balls and sausages! I will know next time though to wash my hands after using black icing as it stained my fingers and can you see it has transferred onto teddy?
1 - Firstly start with plain icing
2 - and colour it with a dye of your choice, we wanted pink but it turned out more peachy, roll it into a body
