Here is how you can get started...


Supplies

  • Fondant

  • Gloves

  • Toothpick or Small Cutting Knife

  • Wax Paper

  • Fondant Roller

  • Shaping tools (Optional)


Prepare your Workspace


  • Make sure your work surface is clean and dry, with plenty of space to roll out your fondant sheet comfortably.

  • Lightly dust your surface with cornstarch or powdered sugar to keep the fondant from sticking, or use a sheet of wax paper for an easy, mess-free working area.


Colour Your Fondant


Fondant can be bought in the colour you need for your topper design but if you want to have flexibility on the colour intensity or be budget-friendly, you can buy a white fondant and colour it at home by doing the following:


  • Cut out the amount of fondant you need to colour.

  • Select the food colouring colour you want.

  • Spread your fondant out to create a small pocket in the center.

  • Add 1-2 drops of food colouring.

  • Slowly fold the fondant edges inward to seal the food colouring inside. Next, knead and stretch the fondant until the colour has been evenly combined.

  • Continue this process until your desired colour has been achieved.

  • Repeat this process for each colour you need to make.


Remember to wear food-safe gloves if you're handling darker colours to prevent staining your hands.
