These new moulds will produce figures that look hand made, making it quick and easy for beginners. The experienced cake decorator will be able to alter and adapt the finished figures for their own designs.
About The Moulds
The moulds are made from high quality silicone and will not rip or tear under normal use. Before using, wash in warm, soapy water. To dry quickly for re-use, use kitchen paper. Every mould includes full instructions giving the size of the piece of paste to use in grams and which colours to use to finish.
Using the Moulds
Dust liberally with cornflour, shake, then turn over and tap out excess. Check the size piece of paste you will need on the instruction sheet with the mould. Roll into a smooth ball then flatten slightly into a shape similar to the mould making it easy to push into all areas. Press into the shape. The paste should be flat and level with the mould and should not be over the edge. If you have too much paste it can be trimmed with a sharp knife or the PME mould paste trimmer, (if paste moves when doing this you could have double imprints so remove paste and start again). Use a sawing action usually from the centre of the paste to try to avoid lifting it.
When ready to remove, twist mould slightly, turn over and flex. If you have any difficulty, see hints and tips.
Teddy Mould: 10.5CM X 6.5CM
When the teddy is removed from the mould, you can get a good fur effect by snipping with fine curved nail scissors
