PME Cake Modeling Needle
Fine tip for piercing, marking, and texturing fondant
The PME Cake Modeling Needle is a fine tip mounted on a handle, used to pierce small holes, particularly for securing stamens and flower stems, transfer a design by pricking, and remove air bubbles beneath a fondant covering.
Features
Uses
- Piercing small holes to insert stamens or flower stems
- Transferring a design through regular pricking
- Removing air bubbles beneath a fondant covering
- Marking fine lines to guide cutting
- Texturing details on figurines: pores, scales, striations
Note: Pierce the covering at a slight angle to avoid enlarging the hole. An air bubble is easier to remove immediately after covering, while the fondant is still pliable.

Frequently asked questions
Does the needle damage the fondant covering?
No, as long as the hole remains fine and localized: fondant naturally closes around a small-diameter piercing.
Can it be used to attach flower stamens made from gum paste?
Yes, this is one of its common uses: pierce the base of a flower before inserting a stem or stamen.
How should the needle be cleaned between uses?
Wipe it with a dry or slightly damp cloth, then dry it before storing to prevent any residue from remaining on the tip.
