Frequently asked questions
How should gum arabic be prepared before use?
Dilute the powder in a little water until you obtain a fluid solution, then apply it with a brush to the surfaces to be glued.
What is the difference compared with piping gel?
Gum arabic is mainly used as glue and a hardener for fondant, while piping gel creates a shiny, transparent surface effect.
How long can the diluted solution be stored?
Prepare the amount needed for your work session; undiluted powder keeps longer than the ready-to-use solution.
