[@mariarugolo2487]

What a great tutorial and you are a delight to listen too! Thank you so very much.

[@RosieCakeDiva1]

What a lovely thing to say. You are very welcome 😘

[@rachelsveinsson7895]

I watched you make pastillage at CI a few years back, stuck in my head and about to use it now xx

Hi from Scotland Love your videos your amazing x

[@RosieCakeDiva1]

Awww. Thank you 😘

[@nicolebenson4517]

Adorable! ❤

How much pastillage does it make? I need about 1.5 kg for my project. Thank you xx

Just wondering. Have you ever tried coconut oil instead of trex (Crisco here in the states)? I'm finding that my Crisco has a smell after a while although my can is new. I make a lot of model pieces of my gumpaste figures, some just for practice as I perfect my designs. After about 2 weeks, my pieces smell of rancid oil and I know it has to be my Crisco. I've checked my can of Crisdo and it smells fine, it's just my figurines that smell rancid about 2 weeks after they've dried. I'm not sure what other veg fat to try, or even if it has to be veg fat.

Saw her at Cake International show at excel at the beginning and end, she only asked 'how do I look on screen does he make me look good' that was it, at the clearing away she ignored me when I asked her how long it took for her to make Big Ben, she ignored me and was basking in the glory of her few assistants circling her in adoration. She was standing just in front of me but I had to speak to her through her assistant, then she answer 'oh I don't know'. Got onto this video by mistake did not know it was her. The Queen spoke direct to her subjects when out not through an assistant. That's dignity.

How long can I store the pastillage in the freezer or room temp in a humid environment

[@fjabbari5080]

Nice Shall I ask for the brand of your fondant ? When I used toppers fondant on my creamy cake, it loosens and melting 😢

[@RosieCakeDiva1]

Add some tylo powder to give it a little strength. I use lots of different brands of fondant to be honest

[@tnev1746]

Is this made with 1 x medium egg white?

[@bubbarlo6993]

I saw u on tv when you made the freddy mercury cake for the guys birthday.

[@TooTTiFruiTTi]

Great demo Rose, did you rest the pastillage? Another I can't ever imagine you angry ❤

[@RosieCakeDiva1]

No. Not really. Technically the gum trag takes a while to intensify but to be honest by the time I’ve started modelling it’s usually good enough. And this is my quick fix Pastillage after all 😉

@@RosieCakeDiva1 Thank you, Sweetie

[@littleprince8461]

Nice

[@lightningcat9327]

instead of egg white what else I can use ??

[@RosieCakeDiva1]

You can make it with meriwhite (dried egg white powder) but it tends not to dry as hard. xx

[@lightningcat9327]

@@RosieCakeDiva1 no no i means in any form 0% egg .?? no egg white , no egg powder, no egg yolk (yellow part)..

[@RosieCakeDiva1]

@@lightningcat9327 you can try it with Chickpea juice (aquafaba). It works for royal icing too but will probably just take longer to dry xx

[@kathyandthedogs626]

What is tylo powder?

[@RosieCakeDiva1]

@@kathyandthedogs626 it’s just a powder that strengthens. You can buy it in most cake decorating shops and on Amazon.

[@borinquenagirl]

Hello.. just wondering can I also use liquid egg whites.. if so how much?

[@RosieCakeDiva1]

Yes you can. Just the 1 egg white equivalent. R x

[@sombrerocordobes2256]

¡Gracias!

[@RosieCakeDiva1]

You’re welcome xx

[@qleartearcrusade9361]

I tried Yenner's pastillage and it turned out rubbery. It's like one big glob of rubber. I can imagine what happened.

[@RosieCakeDiva1]

This one is much more simple.

[@qleartearcrusade9361]

Going to try this today. Thank you so much.

[@irissepulveda962]

I was reading the comments to see if I could find some more information on her pastillage like how to store it and for how long? I noticed she didn't answer any of the questions. I find that very rude of her. What a shame.
