Do you use compound chocolate?
@dragonsanddaffodils5 ай бұрын
I still use good quality chocolate such as callebaut when making ganache for the better taste and I find it gives it more stability. However I do know that some businesses use the cheaper chocolate available at their local supermarket

Great tutorial. How thick and wide are your acrylic set up boards?
@dragonsanddaffodils5 ай бұрын
Sorry for not seeing this. I use ganaching boards from the vanilla valley that I purchased. A 4mm thick board is my preferred and I tend to use 10.5” for the 10” tier but use ?.25” for the smaller sizes unless they are very tall tiers

@dragonsanddaffodils3 жыл бұрын
Hi Sarahjane, Glad you like the look of it :D I think laminating it is the way to go to keep it clean for future use. I want the instruction sheet loose, I toyed with the idea of punching a hole but remembered what happened to my cake quantities chart when I punched a hole and I managed to leak water into it hahahahahaha Yes I am clumsy! but yes I agree, laminating is a great idea. If it was multiple sheets I would definitely punch a hole before laminating and then punch again. Reminds me of going to festivals <3 Great idea thank you :D

Hi caitlyn, yes they will keep for quite a while if kept away from damp conditions (although a little egg cup of rice where you store them will take away the moisture) and also out of direct sunlight to stop fading They sadly won’t keep forever as all food eventually breaks down but I usually keep my teaching subjects for at least a year on display 😊

Thanks so much Rhianydd, this tutorial and the wand came at a great time! I've made them previously, but not in so much detail and I didn't realise there was a ribbon & patch on the hat (I haven't see the films.....!!!!). I usually cover my RKT with a little ganache as it always ends up lumpy and the shape of the rice krispies show through the sugarpaste. I'll try your knife technique in future, thanks. Can't wait to see the cake, your creations are fabulous x x
@dragonsanddaffodils3 жыл бұрын
I adore the films so much lol I am so pleased you like it. Yes, ganache is great for covering rice krispies, but I find that I can rub a rolling pin or smoother over my shapes and the lumps and bumps go away if the rkt is still soft. If it is firm, then I sculpt them with a serrated knife. Hope that helps :D
