Blossom Crescent Mould
EAE - ELV159
Create some gorgeous sugar or edible flowers with the Blossom Crescent Mould! This mould makes a spray of four flowers with two different sizes, making it perfect for decorating cakes and cupcakes.
The blossom crescent mould is made from silicone and it can be used with a range of materials including fondant and gumpaste.
The mould features two different sized flowers with the smaller blossoms measuring at approximately 2cm and the larger measuring at approximately 3.5cm. When joined together, the four flowers measure at 9.5cm x 4cm.
Usage Instructions:
- Simply press your material into the mould and try not to overfill
- Slice away any excess with the back edge of a knife so you don't damage your mould.
- Once your mould has a flat back, carefully flex the mould to remove it and allow to dry, preferably on baking paper to prevent sticking.
- To decorate, either use coloured fondant initially or use edible paint, lustre dusts or petal dusts to colour the outside of your piece.
Tips & Tricks:
- Moulds can be 'lightly' wiped with cooking oil, but be sure to remove any excess.
- If the icing is too sticky or limp, lightly knead in some cornflour or icing sugar (for fondant or gumpaste).
- For large and detailed moulds, place filled mould in the freezer for a few minutes to harden so the detail holds when removing.
- If painting your item, petal dust and rose spirit is recommended as it dries quickly and prevents fondant and gumpaste from becoming soggy. Be sure to use an appropriate sized paint brush.
- For fine details, you could use edible food pens.
