This is really more of lesson 9a.
So what is Gumpaste? It is a modeling compound you can use to make more elaborate structures out of than chocolate or fondant.
I usually buy mine either in the premixed pouches or in the cans you add water to, but it is possible to find recipes online.
It takes a varied drying time - the frames for the movie cake dried far faster than the center disk of the reel - and, like fondant, you can mix color in or paint it on afterwards.
Stay tuned next week for part b in which I will show how to use it.
