FAQs
What materials can I use with the cutters?
You can use sugarpaste, gumpaste, almond paste, marzipan, and non-edible modeling clay.
How do I clean the cutters?
Wash the cutters with warm, soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and allow to air dry.
Can I use these cutters for fondant?
Yes, you can use these cutters for fondant, but sugarpaste or gumpaste are recommended for best results.
What size carnations do the cutters make?
The set includes cutters that make different sizes of carnations, allowing for variety in your designs.
How do I store the cutters?
Store the cutters in a clean, dry place to keep them in good condition.
Can these cutters be used for chocolate work?
The cutters can be used for chocolate work, however, ensure the chocolate is the correct consistency and temperature. Best results are with sugarpaste and gumpaste.
What if the sugarpaste tears when I try to cut the flower?
Make sure your sugarpaste is not too dry. If necessary, knead a small amount of shortening into the paste before rolling it out. Also, ensure you are using enough pressure to cut through cleanly.
Troubleshooting
Flowers are sticking to the cutter.
Lightly dust the cutter with cornstarch or icing sugar before use. Ensure your sugarpaste or gumpaste is not too sticky.
Petal details are not well-defined.
Ensure your sugarpaste or gumpaste is the correct consistency (not too soft). Apply even pressure when cutting.
Cutters are difficult to clean.
Use a soft brush or toothpick to remove any remaining material from the cutter.
