re: Have you used Mexican paste?

Hi Karen, I use it for my large sculpting work. I use my own modelling chocolate, mix it with fondant (about half and half) and it stays soft and malleable for far longer. I wear plastic gloves as well as it helps in smoothing. Also, if not finished, I place cling film over it and go back to it and it revives right away. The chocolate keeps it malleable and very forgiving if you need to amend while working as will re-smooth and blend.
I’ve also used Renshaw blossom paste mixed with fondant for small modelling figures, it’s lovely and smooth.
Saracino paste (I was given a sample) is also beautiful to work with and smells lovely.
Good luck, lovely Karen 🤗
