Have you prepared a good paste for making edible flowers?, gum paste, pastillaje etc?

Update:

thaks ac3249, I don't have any problem with the fondant, you can make yours out of the marsmallows, it's easy and cheap and you don't have to buy it, make it when you made you don't have to use your machine, only your hands and the microwave. You can find the recipe in google.

    Usually when I make edible flowers I use fondant. I just find it easiest to use.

    The recipe is :

    3 1/2 cups powdered sugar

    1/3 cup hot water

    1/3 cup corn syrup

    just put everything in a mixer a mix it till you get the right consistency. After that you can add food coloring. To be honest I usually just by my fondant instead of making it. Making a large amount of fondant will bring a mixer to it knees and burn out the motor that much faster.
