Can anyone tell me how to make edible glue please?
I usually buy it but i have run out and don;t have time to go to the cake shop. I have a feeling you use gum tragacanth but i am not sure. Can anyone help please?

Sorry can't help here either , could you use an icing sugar and water mix instead?"Every time you feel yourself getting pulled into someone else's nonsense, tell yourself: Not my circus, not my monkeys." - Mark Borkowski.

I've just asked my sister who did it in cake decorating class this week. Mix a small amount of sugarpaste with Renwhite (Egg White Substitute) into a chewing gum consistency.
Alternatively if you cannot see the glue (i.e it will be covered by decoration etc) you can pipe a little bit of royal icing onto the cake, place what needs to be glued onto the cake and remove any excess from the sides with a small brush.0
