Hi,
This lesson shows you how to make gum paste & modelling chocolate. The reason for that is these 2 things mixed together will become modelling paste which is used for the macrames and bargello art.
hi,
Did you use Nic Lodge’s recipe & the same ingredients? This is a very famous recipe around the world and many artists use it effectively. I myself find it most comfortable to work with using exactly the tylose powder brand as I showed in the video (Confectionery Arts), CMC is too strong and will make the gum paste so rubbery (maybe mashmallow texture like you said?)
You need to knead it again until smooth, condition with shortening and add gel color gradually into the paste and knead carefully. This home-made gum paste recipe is not very soft, especially if your weather is dry.
Thank you for your reply. I used Sugar craft Essential tylo powder using the same recipe but it is not working well. I will by the confectionary arts and try again.
bonjour Jess

Hi there,
1. I use home made gum paste recipe by Nic Lodge which stands humidity best so far. I live in a humid city and this recipe is quite good.
2. Yes you can use the mixture of gum paste- modelling chocolate to make flowers but it willnot stand humidity very well.
Best,
Jessica

Perhaps the tylose powder u use is too strong. You can try reducing the amount of tylose to 25gr, it will be less hard.that’s what I often do with CMC
Ok I try
Thank you very much
