New to forum and cake decorating.
Hi.
I am new to baking cakes and decorating. The decorating has taken my interest and I have just completed my first 1 day decorating class which I enjoyed.
A couple of years back I created all the characters from “In the night garden” in super sculpey for my son’s birthday. Then I had a great idea this year….to make “Holly’s little kingdom” castle and characters for his 4th birthday. So I’m on a steep learning curve!!!
I’ve bought a couple of Craftsy tutorials and I did a day class but I have questions eg how much tylose to use, structural support etc, etc.
If anyone is keen to guide/tutor me I’d love that.
Thanks Michelle

Michelle welcome to cakesdecor I think you will find a lot of helpful people here.
To answer your very first question the ratio of tylose to fondant is 1tsp per 1lbs of fondant. :) can’t wait to see your creations.
Thank you
