Renshaw - Modeling Paste
250 g White Renshaw Modeling Paste
White Renshaw modeling paste, neutral base for coloring, for figurines and fine details, 250 g format.
The 250 g White Renshaw Modeling Paste is a specialized paste for fine modeling: figurines, flowers, letters, and sculpted details. Its neutral white shade serves as a base that can be colored according to the project, with a firmer texture than classic fondant and faster drying.
Unlike covering paste or classic fondant, which are intended for covering cakes, this modeling paste is designed for hand-worked pieces and can be easily colored with gel or paste food colorings.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between modeling paste and covering paste or classic fondant?
Modeling paste contains a hardening agent (gum tragacanth or CMC) that makes it firmer and faster to dry, making it ideal for figurines and fine flowers. Covering paste or classic fondant is more flexible and intended for covering large surfaces.
How do you color white modeling paste?
With gel or paste food coloring, never liquid coloring. Knead for 1 to 2 minutes for an even shade. For intense colors (black, red), start with pre-colored paste rather than adding too much coloring, which would compromise the texture.
How much should you plan for a standard 8 to 10 cm figurine?
Allow approximately 40 to 60 g depending on the complexity of the piece. Store the rest in an airtight bag to prevent premature drying.
