The perfect ready-made paste for creating frills and drapes on cakes. The paste is non-sticky which makes it ideal to use with moulds, making garlands, plaques, and all models where a smooth, strong finish is required.
WHAT IS MEXICAN PASTE? It is Ultra Fine Modelling Paste, that if made at home is likely to burn out a an engine on your mixer unless you have one made suitable for making this type of modelling paste!
This medium is absolutely perfect for modelling. It sets very hard and makes wonderful figures and buildings. It can be rolled paper thin for dressing model characters and colours easily with paste colouring.
When mixed 50:50 with sugarpaste it gives a good firm-drying but still pliable material so is great for making frills and cut-out cake decorations. It is also an excllent base for stencil work and for making plaques which can be painted with edible colours.
