HOW I MAKE GUMPASTE GHOSTS
 by George Fowler


 

Materials List

 
Gumpaste Styrofoam cone Super Pearl Dust
Pastry cutter Plastic bell Non-toxic marker

 

 


 

I first attach a ball of gumpaste
to the top of the form for the
shape of the head

 


 

I then roll out gumpaste thin, cut out a
circular shape  and drape over the form. 
When almost dry, I remove the  form,
dust the ghost with super pearl dust,
and set aside  to continue drying.

When the ghosts are completely dry, I add the faces and
steam them over a teakettle for more sheen.
