FMM Sugarcraft Tappits - Blue

The tappits are approximately 30mm to 40mm high, suitable for most cake decorating projects.

No, these tappits are designed specifically for use with firmer mediums like gum paste and fondant. They are not suitable for soft frostings like buttercream.

Wash them with warm, soapy water. Rinse well and ensure they are completely dry before storing.

Gum paste and fondant are the recommended materials for optimal results. The paste should be pliable but not overly sticky.

While primarily intended for cakes, they can be used for cookies if the cookie dough is rolled to a suitable thickness and baked to hold its shape before decoration, or if used on a fondant layer applied to the cookie.

This specific product variant is blue. Please check other product listings for potential color variations if available.

Ensure your paste is at the correct consistency – not too wet or too dry. Press firmly and evenly. Allow the cut-out shapes to firm up slightly before handling.

Ensure your fondant or gum paste is not too soft or sticky. Lightly dusting the surface with cornstarch or powdered sugar before pressing can help. Alternatively, allow the paste to firm up slightly before using the tappit.

Apply even and firm pressure when pressing the tappit into the paste. Ensure the paste is rolled to an even thickness. If using a rolling pin, a thickness guide can be helpful.

This can occur if the paste is too wet or too dry. Adjust the consistency of your paste. For slightly sticky paste, a tiny bit of shortening on the tappit edge might help, or ensure the paste has had a brief resting period.

Gently ease the paste away from the tappit. For intricate shapes, sometimes a small, soft brush can help lift the excess paste. If the paste is too thin, it might tear; roll it slightly thicker.
