Gum Paste Recipe:
Ingredients:
4 cups Confectioners' Sugar, sifted (reserve 1 cup for later)
1 Tablespoon Gum Tragacanth (or Gum Tex)
1 Tablespoon Liquid Glucose
4 Tablespoons Warm Water (or 3 Tbs warm water + 1 Tbs lemon juice)
Steps (how to make gum paste):
Pour the water in a large bowl and add gelatin (glucose) slowly.
Stir until gelatin is dissolved in the water. You may need to microwave 20-30 seconds or heat on the stove with a double-boiler to get glucose to melt.
Add confectioners' sugar and gum tragacanth.
Mix well.
You'll end up with a soft, sticky dough. Store dough in a well-sealed plastic bag at room temperature overnight (if possible) for it to set.
Knead in the remaining 1 cup of powdered sugar and it will become soft and pliable - no longer sticky. Add more powdered sugar if it continues to feel sticky.
Gum Paste Tips:
Store your gum paste recipe mixture in a large ziplock bag while working with smaller pieces of it (or keep in bowl and cover gum paste surface with a wet towel.) This will help keep it from forming a crust. If you DO get a crust, don't worry, knead in a little confectioners' sugar.
1 pound (about 4 cups) confectioners' (powdered) sugar
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin
1 tablespoon corn syrup
Put water in a saucepan. Sprinkle gelatin over the water. Let gelatin soak for about 5 minutes, until it starts to look foamy. Add corn syrup. Heat mixture over low heat, stirring slowly, until gelatin has dissolved and mixture is clear. Pour into bowl containing confectioners' sugar. Mix together until you can no longer mix; there will be quite a bit of sugar left in the bowl. Dump mix out onto confectioners' sugar dusted work surface (counter top, tabletop, etc). Knead until the mix no longer sticks to your hands.
Store resulting paste in a plastic bag, with all the air pressed out of it. This paste dries quickly, so keep any part you're not using covered. This mix makes very strong sugar pieces, but they can also be very brittle.
Another recipe for a similar paste calls for 1 tablespoon gum tragacanth instead of the gelatin and corn syrup. You should be able to substitute gelatin and corn syrup for gum tragacanth in any recipe.
Things Youll Need:
* 1 Tablespoon glucose
* 3Tablespoons warm water
* 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
* 1 Tablespoon tragacanth gum
* 4 Cups Confectioner's sugar
* Large Mixing Bowl
* Microwave safe bowl or measuring cup
* Plastic bag with seal
Make Your Own Gum Paste
Step1
In a large bowl, mix one tablespoon of tragacanth gum into three cups of sifted confectioners sugar.
Step2
Carve out a hole in the middle of the mix, and set it aside.
Step3
In a microwave safe bowl or glass measuring cup, combine three tablespoons warm water, one tablespoon lemon juice, and one large tablespoon of glucose.
Step4
Heat glucose mixture in microwave on high for thirty seconds. Mixture should now be clear.
Step5
Pour glucose mixture into the hole in the center of the confectioners sugar mix.
Step6
Mix all the ingredients until well blended. The mixture should be very soft.
Step7
Store mixture in a tightly sealed plastic bag and let stand at room temperature for at least eight hours.
Step8
When you are ready to use the gum paste, knead one cup of confectioners sugar into the paste to soften and whiten the paste.
Step9
The gum paste is now ready to use.
