Many thanks for this video tutorial, I managed to make a great dragon and the birthday girl was delighted :D

[@selyfondantdiary]

Hi Anita! 😄😄 Awesome that you did the dragon! It's very complicated, right lol😂😂

[@ravzajankauskiene5160]

Лучшее видео-инструкция по изготовлению дракона. Вы невероятная, огромная благодарность за труд. Я тоже дракон по зодиаку🥰💝

[@selyfondantdiary]

Привет, друг, спасибо! вау ты крут! Я не дракон по зодиаку..

[@Ana-pf2cb]

Eres una artista!!! Y me alucina lo bien explicado que está paso a paso, medidas, peso, descripción de los colores etc... Muy pocos lo explican con tantísimo detalle... Cosa que facilita muchisimo!!! Te felicito!!!

[@selyfondantdiary]

wahh... Realmente espero que tú y otros puedan hacerlo fácilmente con mi video... ¡Muchas gracias por tu lindo comentario, amigo mío! ;)

[@Ana-pf2cb]

Esto es un tutorial!!! Porque la mayoría se dedica a ponerlo en cámara rápida sin explicar casi y solo lucen sus obras. Una vez mas felicidades por tu trabajo y por lo bien explicado que está.

[@selyfondantdiary]

Wah, muchas gracias, realmente lo aprecio... es un trabajo duro hacer el dragón, pero es más difícil editar un video para un panadero como yo... jajajaja ;D

[@selyfondantdiary]

Hi hii ka Linna! 🙋‍♀️🥰 makasihh yaa... iya, dulu ada yang request ditambahin gram2an ya jadi keterusan..pasti jadi lebih gampang ngikutinnya..asal sedia timbangan yang koma2 aja 😁

[@linnachristina9645]

Iya betul lebih gampang, bentuk nya jd proporsional. Klo utk pemula di kira2 sendiri hasil nya suka aga2 aneh 😂. O iya kak, sy udh coba bikin yg ballerina... Klo model figurine kya gtu ga bisa ya di aplikasiin di cake yg di cover buttercream? Harus cake cover firm ganache+fondant? Tengkyuuu kaa 🙏

[@selyfondantdiary]

@@linnachristina9645 kalo buttercream bisa ka, kalo ganache/pake whipcream, ga bisa karna kandungan airnya banyak, fondantnya nyerap air dan basah.. kalo buttercream yang full butter(oil) aman ke fondant 😊👍

[@selyfondantdiary]

[@elmarasic3937]

This looks amazing! Do you have a link for buying the wire and tape that you used?

[@selyfondantdiary]

Thank u, Elma! 🙋‍♀️😊 sorry, I dont have it.. 😅

[@Bianca-Bibistaarten]

WOW ! Beautifull work. Can you show more of the materials you are using? Is it aluminium or steel is it all covered with paper like flowerwire ? Thank you very much for the tutorial. Have a nice weekend 🌹🙋🏼‍♀️

[@selyfondantdiary]

Hi Bianca! For the wire, you can use galvanized wire or stainless wire ( with thickness 1.5 - 2 mm) which is not easy to rust. Choose one that is strong and can be bent. Because there are some wires that are very difficult to bend, and if needed you can use 2 pliers to bend them. I think the aluminum wire is too weak to hold the fondant. Wrapping the wire with paper tape is to make the fondant stick better to the wire. And also to stick the cake will look better because it looks clean (because the wire is tightly covered with the white paper tape). Yes, most of them were wrapped with tape. ;))

[@suzypatenaude65]

oh so incredible! you are talented beyond belief!! I have a question..... if ....just if....I tried to make something that may or may not resemble your dragon, can you actually transfer it onto a cake by taking it out of the sytrofoam base? would you have to let it dry for a couple of days before doing so? thank you for sharing your talent

[@selyfondantdiary]

Hi Suzy! Thank you very much! 🥰 Yes, you have to dry it first before transferring it to the cake.. just pull out the bottom wire little by little using 2 scissors with your hands..😊👍

[@natashahoque6497]

This looks fantastic what is the wire made of that you've used?

[@dymenmccoy7365]

Wow this was super helpful!! I do have a question… How do you keep the fondant from cracking and drying out while you’re working on it? I can never do intricate fondant work because it starts to dry and crack and ruin the overall look

[@selyfondantdiary]

Hi hiii Dymen! 😊 According to my experience, fondant dries quickly usually due to dry air from air conditioners or sunny weather. I usually work in a room without air conditioning. To prevent the fondant from drying quickly, you can store it in a plastic or closed container, if you are not going to use the fondant. In addition, the character of fondant varies for each brand. Some take a long time to dry, some dry quickly. You can try several other brands of fondant and find one that suits your climate. If there are small/fine cracks, they can be smeared with shorthening and then smoothed. But for rather large cracks, use fondant of the same color, melt it with a little water, then apply it to the crack and smooth it out. 😊

[@dymenmccoy7365]

Thank you so much for your help and tips!!

[@selyfondantdiary]

anytime Dymen! 😊👍
