Projects

Shaggy Mum Cake

Mums come in many varieties and every color imaginable. That makes this cake perfect for almost any occasion – simply vary the flower color. The shaggy mum decorating technique couldn’t be easier either … simply pull-out your tip as you pipe the icing.

Gum Paste Mums

Gum paste allows you to make finely-detailed flower petals and leaves that can look amazingly realistic. They dry hard and keep forever, allowing you to make them in advance – especially nice if you have a lot of treats to make!

Pom Pom Mum Brownies

Brownies become extra special with a colorful mum as decoration. Pull-out stars, a technique anyone can master, create these multi-toned pom pom mums.
