Tylo Powder
Thickening additive for firming fondant into homemade gum paste
PME Cake Tylo powder is a food additive that, when mixed into fondant, makes it firmer and more resistant as it dries: it allows you to prepare homemade gum paste for figurines and decorations that need to hold their shape in three dimensions.
Features
Uses
- Preparing homemade gum paste from fondant
- Strengthening three-dimensional modeled figurines and decorations
- Faster and harder drying of decorative pieces
- Making flowers and petals from edible modeling paste
Please note: Gradually incorporate the powder into the fondant until you achieve the desired firmness; too much will make the paste brittle.
