Edible glue & fondant aids
There are 4 products.
To keep decorations in place, fondant supple and the finished cake looking its best, a few small helpers make all the difference. In this category you will find edible glue and other fondant aids that make working with sugar paste, flower paste and marzipan noticeably easier.
Gluing, softening and adding shine
The clear edible glue in a handy 20 g tube is our best-selling helper. It attaches fondant pieces, flowers and figures securely and invisibly. Glycerine for fondant and baking, 120 g, restores elasticity to dry paste and keeps it fresh for longer. If you want to save time, the white ready-rolled fondant sheet with a diameter of 36 cm is ready to use straight away. Finally, the Cake Steamer is a steaming device that removes starch residue and gives fondant a soft sheen.
- Gluing: clear edible glue, 20 g tube
- Softening: glycerine for fondant and baking, 120 g
- Saving time: white ready-rolled fondant sheet, Ø 36 cm
- Finishing: Cake Steamer, steaming device for fondant
Using these aids well
Apply the edible glue sparingly with a fine brush and wait a moment until it turns slightly tacky before pressing the decoration on. Too much glue will make pieces slide. If your fondant is cracking, knead in a few drops of glycerine until the paste is smooth again. Move the Cake Steamer quickly over the covered cake, holding it at a distance and never lingering in one spot. Sugar paste in many colours is available in our Fondant and gum paste category.
Storage and tips
Close the glue and glycerine tightly after use and store them in a cool, dry place. Wrap leftover fondant airtight in cling film and it will keep for weeks. Starch for dusting your work surface can be found in our Flour, starch & baking malt category.
With these helpers, your decorations stay put and your cakes look fresh right to the end.
