Presentation
The FUNCAKES White Gum Paste 250 g, also known as edible flower paste, is a professional modeling paste designed for sugar flowers, fine petals, leaves, and delicate decorations. Its soft, silky texture allows it to be rolled out very thinly without tearing, while its quick drying time permanently sets the shape.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference from classic fondant?
Gum Paste dries faster and hardens once dry to preserve the shape of petals, whereas fondant remains soft and is used to cover the entire cake.
How many flowers can be made with a 250 g sachet?
Approximately 30 to 50 g for one large flower such as a peony, 150 to 250 g for a bouquet of 5 to 7 medium-sized flowers, or 100 to 200 g for a complete floral decoration on one cake tier.
How should Gum Paste flowers be dried?
Place the petals on a drying foam to preserve their curve, or suspend flowers mounted on wire. Allow 1 to 2 hours for a thin petal and 12 to 24 hours for a whole flower.
