PME Cake Blade and Shell Modeling Tool
Double-ended blade and shell tool for crisp edges and draped effects
The PME Cake Blade and Shell tool is double-ended: one end has a flat blade for marking crisp folds, edges, and ribbon ends, while the other is shaped like a fan shell for creating draped effects or scalloped borders on fondant.
Features
Uses
- Marking crisp folds on fondant drapery and coverings
- Shaping fondant ribbon ends, points, and bevels
- Creating fan or shell textures on borders and cake bases
- Adding draped clothing details to cake-decorating figures
- Creating textured finishes for wedding cakes
Please note: Work on fondant while it is still pliable for clean marks: fondant that is too dry will crack instead of forming folds.
