How to make fondant (gum paste) ladybug (ladybird) - 2/2

http://cakes.keyartstudio.com/cake-blog
In this tutorial Im going to show you how to make shiny fondant (gum paste) ladybug (ladybird) with edible antennae. I am using rice noodles and edible varnish (aka confectioners glaze). Rice noodles could be purchased at your local supermarket in Asian food section and died with food color. Confectioners glaze could be purchased online if your local cake supply store does not have it.

To die rice noodles, boil some water, dissolve desired amount of gel food color in it, and drop dry noodles in it. Let them soak up the color for about 20 minutes, then take them out and spread on a sheet of foil and let dry. Store in airtight container.
