- EASY GUMPASTE RECIPE DETAILS BELOW
Welcome to Arise Cake Creations first video!
I’m sure you’ve all seen the delicate sugar flowers that adorn wedding & celebration cakes and believed you would never be able to make them! Or thought it will take years of practice to even get to a decent stage! Well, with plenty of practice and the right instruction you will be making delicate sugar flowers in no time!
Let’s start from scratch! Making an easy gumpaste recipe. This is a Nicholas Lodge recipe, that I have adapted - I mix it for a much shorter length of time and make it by hand rather than using a mixer, so the egg structure stays stronger, incorporating less air so the finished gumpaste stands up to the heat and humidity I encounter in Thailand, it also makes It less fragile. That is why I love this recipe!
Tylose or CMC - CMC stands for Carboxymethyl Cellulose (that's a mouth full to say!). Tylose is the brand name for CMC. So, they are pretty much the same thing. As you venture into decorating cakes chances are, you’ll end up using them. The purpose of them is to create hard sugar flowers, make fondant into modelling paste to create sugar models. Overall, it helps to give sugar creations a firm hold.
Additional information for this tutorial is available on my blog with a printable recipe:

Good day to you
Thank you for your tutorial
I am watching your channel for the first time.
I am new to cake decorating
One q for you
Can meringue powder be used as a substitute in the event you can not find pasteurized eggs in your location?
If so what amount can be used
Thank you for the response 🙏
Thank you for your comment and question. I have never made gumpaste with meringue powder. It maybe worth doing a google search there maybe a gumpaste recipe that uses meringue. I hope you are able to find a recipe🌸🤗
Will try this recipe since I live in Florida. What will be the ratio if I use gum tragacanth, please let me know. Thanks
My recipe will work great in Florida. I have never made this recipe with gum tragacanth, so unfortunately I do not know what the quantity to add is.
Global Sugar Art, has a Mexican Paste recipe using gum tragacanth, it might be worth looking at it. Here is the link

@@AriseCakeCreations Thank you for replying. Will check the link😊
Can I use icing sugar on the surface if I do not have cornflour around
How long we can storage it? Thank you for sharing your experience 😊
Thank you for your lovely comment. I have written a blog to go along with this tutorial which lists additional tips including info about the storage of this gumpaste. The printable recipe outlines the storage information:

hi.. im a beginner and love your videos. can i use this recipe in Asian country in rainy days? may i know is there any non metling gumpaste recipe to use in rainy days.
Thank you for your comment❤ I live in Thailand, and I have high humidity during the rainy season. This gumpaste recipe can definitely be used on rainy days. Once your flowers are dried and stored well. Your flowers will last very long.
I do also have an alternative gumpaste recipe which is vegan, made without egg whites (or gelatin). It does take longer to dry, but it gives you time to work with it and make your flowers, especially if you are a beginner, it also stands up to rainy days/humidity. Here is the link for my blog, which also has my CZcams video for it:

I hope this helps🤗🥰

Can i use this for cake topper figures or should i use sth else?
Yes, this can be used as a cake topper. It really depends on what style cake you are making. I hope this helps🌸🤗
Hi I’m new on your channel I liked your recipe it’s same as what my chef taught me but after I stored it in the fridge the next time I wanted to use it the gum paste kept sweating. Please is there a particular reason why it did that
Welcome to the Arise Cake Creations community❤
When you take the gumpaste from the fridge you need to let it come to room temperature before using (it may take a few hours to come to room temperature). The gumpaste will sweat at first due to the change of temperature from the cold fridge into the warm air. I hope this helps🤗🥰
Is there any eggless version... how can we substitute with eggs??
There are eggless versions, but unfortunately I have not done a video tutorial yet. I hope to do a video tutorial for a eggless/vegan version soon. I would also need to experiment with it to find out how good it is for making sugar flowers and if it is good with heat & humidity. If you are subscribed & turn on notifications to my channel you will be alerted as soon as I have done the tutorial for it. Thank you
please do you use all the Crisco?
Thank you for your question. You do not have to use all the Crisco, it depends on what your gumpaste feels like. If still feels dry, add some more Crisco, if it feel too sticky, do not add any more crisco, you could knead in a small amount of corn starch/corn flour NOT icing sugar, since this can start to make it go to sticky as well. I hope this helps🌸🤗
Good evening dear pls how many eggs did you use,, I don't understand it in grams.
Thank you for your question, here is the full recipe in cups (you can half the recipe if you need less). I hope it helps🤗🤗:
• 4 Egg whites (½ cup)
• 6 cup Powdered sugar/ confectioners sugar
• 2 tablespoon Tylose powder or CMC
• 2 tablespoon Veg shortening vegetable fat (Trex or Crisco)
• ½ cup Powdered sugar (confectioners or icing sugar) for kneading
What are the quntities
The recipe is in the description box. and my blog. Here is my blog with full details and printable recipe and further information about making this gumpaste🤗🥰
www.arisecakecreations.com/home/blog-easy-gumpaste-recipe?rq=gumpaste#recipe-gumpaste-anchor-link
Cant we make this without cmc or tylo powder?
There is an alternative recipe that does not use CMC or Tylo. The alternative is made with unflavoured gelatin & corn syrup. I have never tried it, so unfortunately I do not know how hard it will dry and how long flowers will keep for once made up. Here is the link to this full recipe - www.justapinch.com/recipes/dessert/other-dessert/gum-paste-simple.html
Other alternatives that can be used to make edible flowers are Bean Paste (takes a long time to make) or Rice Paste/Clay. I have heard however they do not dry quickly and can crumble. This would not work for me, since I live in a hot & humid climate. I hope this information helps😊
Is eatable when you finish the Roses?
The gumpaste is edible, since it is made with edible ingredients. In order to make realistic sugar flowers to decorate a cake or displays, you need to use some form of support such as a wooden skewer or florist wire, these support are not edible. You can make flowers without the supports as well, to do simple decorations on cupcakes and cakes. I hope this answers your question and helps🥰🤗
@@AriseCakeCreations Yeah Sure..Thank you..💯❤❤
Hello, what quantity of the ingredients did you use?
Thank you for your question. The quantity of the ingredients is in the description box. I have also written a blog, which gives additional information and printable recipe for the gumpaste. Here is the link:

I hope this helps🤗🥰
Thank you
Is the egg whites safe , I mean the salmonella because it's not cook. How lng is the shelf life
Thank you for your question. As long as your eggs are pasteurised, using raw egg whites will be safe. This gumpaste when wrapped up well in the fridge will last up to 6 months and several years in the freezer. I have written a blog that goes along with this tutorial that has more info - www.arisecakecreations.com/home/blog-easy-gumpaste-recipe?rq=Gumpaste%20recipe
I hope this helps🤗

Can I use this gum paste for figurines ?
Thank you for your question. You can use gumpaste for figurines, however, you will have to work quick, since it dries quickly. I would suggest you use modelling paste (edible) if it is figurines for cakes. If you just want figurines for something other than cake or something you can eat. I would use cold porcelain - which gives you time to work with it, dries very hard and is not as fragile as sugar gumpaste. I hope this information helps🌸🤗
could I get the recipe please
Thank you for your comment. The recipe for this is in the video about the description box. I hope you have success making it😊
Kindly share the measurements
Thank you for your question. I have listed the measurements for this tutorial in the description box. I have also written a blog with addition tips and the printable recipe: www.arisecakecreations.com/home/blog-easy-gumpaste-recipe?rq=Gumpaste%20recipe
I hope this helps🥰🤗
Potrei avere la ricetta in italiano grazie 🙏
Scusa, non parlo italiano - Sorry, I do not speak Italian😕
How many egg white ?
Thank you for your comment. It is much more accurate to measure the gumpaste, since some eggs may weigh more than others. The full recipe is in the description box for this video. I have also written a blog to go along with this tutorial with a printable recipe. Here is the link for it www.arisecakecreations.com/home/blog-easy-gumpaste-recipe?rq=gumpaste
I hope this helps🥰❤️
You didn't mention the quantity of them...
Thank your for your comment. What did you want to know the quantity of?🌸🤗
This is very cul
Ingredients in french please
Unfortunately, I do not speak French😕 So, I can not give the ingredients in French. Thank you
Sarah, I did try this.
Your recipe amounts to approximately 6 or 7 tsp of CMC or Tylose. Correct?
While it came out really smooth after kneading, when I used it...it was ‘too elastic’ to get a thin roll.
Imagine working with bread dough except multiply by 5 . It just kept trying to retract back to the ball.
I hope the condition of mine makes sense.
Though it came out decent (I mean... it did look like a fantasy type rose) rolling to get and stay thin...was exhausting 🥴😉😋 to cut petals.
The other issue is that the edges seem to dry out faster even keeping them covered.
I was used to the ease of Satin Ice. Not promoting them at all.
As a beginner, I just purchased the first brand I saw to practice with.
What did I do wrong and does one have to use all the Tylose/CMC called for in a recipe?
I use a scale.
This is new territory and most like bakers error on my part. I’ll try it again if you can ‘diagnose’ or attempt troubleshooting my error.☺️
🙇🏽♀️🙏🏾❤️
I am so sorry, that you had this experience when you made the Gumpaste😕 I weighed the CMC using 30g, I didn't do the measurements in teaspoon, so not sure if this may have caused the problem.
I am presuming you did not use all of the icing sugar, when kneading the gumpaste once it was made? Also did you use all of the vegetable shortening? This recipe does not require you to use all of it, just enough until the gumpaste has reached the right texture.
Did you allow the gumpaste to mature for 24 hours before using it? 24 hours in either the fridge or cool/cold environment. This step is super important.
I have never had problems with it being over stretchy or retracting back, when I am rolling it.
I have never used Satin Ice gumpaste. I used to use Squires Kitchen and a Thai brand many years ago, before switching to making my own about 6 years ago.
The gumpaste needs to be wrapped up and any cut petals must be covered well - with a plastic sleeve/cover, then into a zip lock bag depending on the environment you are in. I also sometimes cover the gumpaste that I am using, with a glass and tear off pieces as I need it, and never have a problem with it drying out.
It is a gumpaste that dries a bit quicker, that what makes it great for humid environments/countries. However, it does normally still allow you time to manipulate the petals a bit.
These are some of my trouble shooting tips, without seeing it, it is hard to tell, what else could have caused the problems.
I have also written a blog, that may also further help:
www.arisecakecreations.com/decorate/blog-easy-gumpaste-recipe-yme4d
You could try making a much smaller quantity, maybe 1/4 of the recipe to see if it makes a difference -
Fresh or Pasteurised Egg Whites - 31.25g
Powered Sugar - 182g
CMC/Tylose Powder - 7.5g
Vegetable Shortening - 5g
Powered Sugar - 25g (additional for kneading)
I will actually be posting a Gumpaste Rose tutorial this week. Keep an eye out for it. It may hopefully help to give further insight on how to handle the gumpaste.
I hope I have helped in some way🙏
@@AriseCakeCreations hi, how long can i store the gumpaste once made? Also the flowers can i make them a head and then freeze ? And for how long, tysm ❤️❤️
Arise Cake Creations let me thank you for your reply .its very kind of you to Give such detailed explanation.
