3 Gum Paste and Fondant

You’ll discover one of the most exciting and satisfying ways to decorate a cake. Your Wilton Method instructor will lead you every step of the way as you create amazing hand-shaped flowers, beautiful borders and bold accents using these easy-to-shape icings. As you learn each technique – an artful bow, mum, rose, carnation, calla lily, rosebud, daisy and embellished borders – you’ll be closer to your crowning achievement: A final course cake that showcases your skills. The confidence you’ll gain as you decorate with gum paste and fondant will enable you to create cakes that will add excitement to your family celebrations for years to come.

For best results, Wilton recommends completing the Decorating Basics Course before taking Gum Paste & Fondant.
