The modelling paste differs in several ways from others on the market however it is its ease of use that is making it so popular. The Saracino modelling paste is so durable that it can be rolled or moulded to a thickness of 1mm, meaning you can get more lifelike flower petals and leaves than ever before. Also, because you can roll it so thinly, it works great with cutters, making it more versatile as you can then use it for side-tier and top-tier embellishments - not just for sugar floristry purposes. Due to the presence of cocoa butter, Saracino Modelling Paste is very useful when modelling 3D cake figures and toppers. It means that whilst the modelling paste hardens quickly, it does not dry out, so you can easily correct any mistakes and often have models made in record time! The modelling paste is also extremely elastic, so you can bend and shape it as you desire, with minimal risk of tearing and cracking. Not only this but, once hardened, it easily maintains its shape, and tastes great! Available in 250g or 1kg. Please note, it is normal for the paste to be firm on arrival, but will soften after kneading. Alternatively, you can place your desired amount of paste in the microwave (remove any packaging) for just a few seconds to soften.
