Confect Glistening Gold Sugar Paste, Edible Sugar Paste, Fondant for Cake Decoration, Edible Fondant Chefs Choice for Cake Decorating - 250 Gms

Lovely bright gold colour running through. A little grainy in texture compared to other coloured fondant, but easy to shape when warmed. It gave my cake a real celebration feel and held its form when shaped into roses. Nice contrast with red or black fondant.

Bit pricey but looked really nice. Used this to make flowers for a birthday cake. Easy to roll out

Awful stuff. Far too soft to do anything with, even added Tylo powder to some, made no difference. It was like trying to roll out a marshmallow. The colour is nothing like the pictures. Too expensive for what it is.

MY daughter was turning 10 and wanted to design her own cake for her birthday party. After talking her down from a 3 tier wedding cake, she decided on a black and gold theme. I have previously tried gold fondants and found them to be dull looking, but a quick search and up popped this product. The images looked very shiny and i thought it worth a try. I would say you would need a few packs to cover a full cake but for accents it was more than sufficient (the cake I made used just over half a pack). When i first opened it I found it to be extremely sticky, seriously i thought i had purchased slime and had to read the pack to make sure it was the right product! It took a good 10 minutes of kneading between my hands and adding icing sugar before it started to develop into something resembling fondant, but once i had worked it, it was easy to roll and use. The finished result wasnt quite shimmering (i would imagine the stock picture had been brushed with alcohol to get the shiny effect) but saying that it is the closed thing to a gold effect i have found and despite the initial difficulty making it pliable I would purchase again if i needed to use gold again. The taste was also pleasant with no hints of off flavors.

These will be used on my daughter's wedding cake. Looking forward to using them, lovely product

Made some roses 🌹 in the mould and it came out easy . The fondant is soft so some people might want to add Tylo powder for a bit firmness

Love this product great quality beautiful finish looks very stylish

Nowhere near as shiny as the pictures or packaging. It was very wet and sticky so very hard to roll out. It felt more like bread dough than fondant. OK for small decorations but I doubt I'd be able to roll it out to cover a whole cake.
