"Beautiful buttons" star star star star star_border I bought this mould about a week ago to decorate cup cakes for my God daughter's 10th birthday. I used ordinary fondant icing, which the Americans call sugar paste, to make the buttons. I followed the instructions on the packaging, except I placed the mould with the icing in the freezer for some 45 minutes before removing the buttons. Just wonderful and I am pleased I bought this mould. I have given 4 instead of 5 starts because some of the buttons did not have good definitions.
"great" star star star star star This review is for an older version of this product I have hundreds of moulds as I make wedding cakes and this is a lovely one to add to my collection. I use modelling/florist paste, press in and leave for a few hours so the patterns don't distort when you take them out. Hopefully you will be doing more mould designs.
"Brilliant!" star star star star star Great little mould, very easy to use and to clean. Produces nicely detailed decorations.
"Button Mould" star star star star star First time I tried it I wasnt very impressed and threw it in the cupboard. With more knowledge I have tried the button mould again. I used a 50/50 ratio of fondant and flowerpaste, dusted the mould with cornflour, pushed a ball of fondant into each button then used a knife to trim the excess, then popped it in a plastic bag and into the freezer for 10 mins, the buttons popped out without any problems with great detail.
"badly molded" star star_border star_border star_border star_border There is so little space at the edges of some of the moulds that the sugar paste is too thin to remain intact support_agent A note from the team Thanks for taking the time to write your review. For best results we suggest placing the mould in the freezer for a few mins. This will help stabilize the sugar paste.
