Regarding gum paste, I don’t get Gum tragacanth here so an I use fondant ? Also I have a packet of gum paste ( powder form ) which I bought from a bakining store in Canada ! a can I use this ?
Is glucose and corn syrup same as I have only corn syrup here.
You can substitute tylose powder for gum tragacanth
Yes, you can try the gumpaste you bought as well.
Liquid Glucose and Corn syrup is not the same but can be used interchangeably while making Gumpaste. Do check on the consistency though. Reduce amount of water in the recipe if your corn syrup is more liquid in consistency than glucose.
Thank you for your reply. I made the dough out of the gum paste but it’s almost 500gms. How long can this be stored ? I have double wrapped it in zip lock bags. I will only be using some to do practice. Also can the gum paste flowers be stored for later use ?
