Frequently asked questions
Can the three balloon sizes be combined on the same cake?
Yes, that is the intended use: combine the three sizes to create a perspective effect, with the largest in the foreground and the smallest in the background.
Does the woven basket come out clearly when unmoulded?
The basket pattern is recessed in the mould: lightly scraping away excess paste before unmoulding is enough to reveal the woven texture.
Can the hot-air balloon be painted once it has been removed from the mould?
Yes, once the paste has dried, powdered food colouring or royal icing can be used to customise the balloon colours to match the cake theme.
