    Thank you, exactly what I needed to know. I have made a mistake in not using a mix with one third flower paste so know I need to keep it cool. The reson I asked is because some fleabay sellers say they can be kept in freezer and I wasn't sure.
    Next time I will spend the extra to do perfectly but we found the perfect colours ready to use in sainsbobs.
    Might have found something I could do well with more practice:T
    And I have witheld on feeding to animals to see if they have pink poo.

    I think my quest has been helped by buying a fall back personalised icing cake topperin case things go wrong. Always better if you have a back up plan:T

    Fair enough. Personally I don't think you need flower paste with models. I only tend to use it when making flowers as it stops the fondant breaking and makes it extra pliable. Saying that I have a back up of CMC powder which does the same job, cheaper than gum tragacanth (the stuff in flower paste) :D

    Thinking of calling him Dave all day tomorrow:rotfl:

    Thanks for the tips. Ladies on youtube said vodka or gin but nothing about jd which is only spirit in house at the moment:rotfl:
    Cake will be wonderful simply because of all the love that has gone into it:)

    FC I built a coupe before but 24 years ago. When it was on offer on amazon hukd had lots of comments about being a pain to build so got me apprehensive.
    To be honest I dont think sticking some wheels on can be that hard it more the manual dexterity involved.

    Picked up my RTC £5 small n mighty 40 wash non bio from A.
    Online at full price. Subbed for 60 washes which was lovely, but it was completely absent from the apg comparison.

    Made my first attempt at click and collect today.
    Made a dogs dinner of it i'd say.
    Rookie mistake didn't check the goods.

    I use that too, it's all the same stuff really. I'm curious does your missus run/work in a bakery or is it a hobby for both of you?
