Thanks Jacquee! Those tappits took me some getting used to. The trick is after you roll out your gumpaste, leave it on the table for 15 minutes to harden up a bit. This makes the cutting easier. When you press in, move the tappit around to release it from the edges, and lift. If you’re lucky, the tappit will still stay on the matt but released from the rest of the gumpaste so it’s a clean cut. Otherwise it will be stuck to your tappit and you have to carefully peel it off. The gumpaste is still a bit forgiving at this stage so you can fix it a bit if it’s been altered. Hope that helps!
