Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A

I have tried desperately to make buttons using silicone moulds. I’ve put corn flour in the moulds, I’ve tried icing sugar instead…both in the moulds and in the sugar paste but they still stick and do not come out easily or a good shape. Any suggestions please??

Hello sjd

Add a little tylose to your sugarpaste to make it slightly less sticky and then put it in the mould, or use gumpaste. You can also pop your project in the freezer for 5 – 10 minutes before un-moulding. Hope this helps.

Edit

For a better shape, turn the mould upside down and peel away from project. x
