Modelling with Sugarpaste

Top tips for modelling with Sugarpaste:

Modelling Basics

  • Knead before use - Warm the paste with your hands until soft and elastic.
  • Shape gradually - Always start with simple shapes (balls, sausages, cones) and combine them to form more complex models.
  • Use edible glue - Attach pieces together using our edible (our Click Twist Glue Brush is perfect for modelling). Hold for a few seconds until secure.
  • Support as needed - For figures, use cocktail sticks or wires to provide structure and stability.

Detailing & Decorating

  • Texture tools - Use modelling tools, venires, or even household items (like
    toothpicks or straws) to add detail.
  • Colouring - Dust with ProPowder or Cake Art Paints to bring your models to life.
  • Layering - Build up small details (bows, buttons) gradually instead of trying to model everything in one go.

Drying & Storage

  • Allow models to dry at room temperature until firm before placing on cakes.
  • Store finished decorations in a cardboard box (not airtight containers, as they trap moisture).
  • Keep away from direct sunlight to prevent colours fading.
