Hello, I just found your videos and I have been watching all day !! Beautiful work !! thank you so much for your knowledge !! I have a question though, how long in advance can I make the figurines made out of gumpaste? and what recipe do you use to make it? thanks again !!!!

Can I ask you - Do you use gumpaste or fondant? I know I have watched many of your wonderful videos but often thou start off saying gumpaste then in the next sentance you say fondant. Keep your videos coming - we love them!!!

youtube is allowing for longer videos so you don't have to load you videos in several parts. You can just make one 15 min video. I think they can be as long as 30 minutes if you want. And believe me. We will watch them!!

Hi, i love watcjing ur vids, u r soooo talented! im only a begginer, n i could not get the gumpaste smooth, even tried 50/50 so it b more managable but nothing, also i get a lot of lint into my light colors and find that if im touching a blue or whatever color gumpaste ball and then touch another color, the darker color passes onto the lighter one? and so i have 2 keep washing my hands...but i see u n laurapoopie just handle everything all at once??? a lot of ?'s, sorry,,thanx n god bless!
