Class Overview

World-renowned cake artist & instructor, Jessica MV will introduce a modified method of making gum paste that she has developed from the famous recipe by Nicholas Lodge. There will be some adaptation in the process of making with the same ingredients to make the paste purer, translucent, slower in drying even in super dry working room or weather.

It also has some other advantages that you may want to try. As sugar flower makers, we all may experience the fact that though our hands, tools & working counter are completely  clean, while we work with gum paste, the paste will catch a lot of fibers & dust that sometimes we don’t know where they are from & this puts us in quite a lot of stress. Now with this adapted version of home-made gum paste, you will feel much more comfortable as the paste will behave so much better & you can become unafraid of not being quick enough before the paste gets dry & becomes useless.

The modified gum paste Jessica makes also blends very well and you can create ombre colors without complex painting or dusting techniques.

Jessica will show you  how to make  the paste & all the steps in making a pure peony with four bud styles & leaves, a dahlia with buds & leaves to create a romantic collection then cover two exotic flowers in ombre colors achieved by blending the paste; rose and peony that have glowing effect.

You will recognise how versatile the new gum paste is with a lot of artistic textures such as 2-in-1 effect: the crackled decaying leaves an mosaic art or the ruffles with crackles on their background & the exotic rock textures.

Also, you will learn the artistic flower sculptures on cake canvas. As you know, traditional gum apste often dries very fast, so it’s quite hard for modelling work. But this modified version of the paste will set you free from the stress. Being slower in drying anf easy to blend seamlessly are two of its advantages and these strong points will reflect in the designs taught in this course. You will be able to craft very intricate details from the chrysanthemums to the thistles and all tiny details to add a lot more depth to a dramatic design.
