Frequently asked questions
How long does fondant take to harden with Tylose?
Allow generally 24 to 48 hours in the open air for it to harden completely, depending on the thickness of the piece and the ambient humidity. Small, thin pieces harden faster than thick shapes.
Can Tylose be used directly with marzipan?
Yes, the principle is the same as for fondant: it gives marzipan enough firmness to be shaped into figurines that retain their form as they dry.
How do you use Tylose as edible glue?
Mix one part powder with 30 parts water (for example, 1 g with 30 g of water) and let it rest overnight in the refrigerator to obtain a transparent glue, ideal for attaching pearls and sugar-paste flowers.
