I'm feeling a little scammed.  Subscribed and got the first volume just fine.  Nothing after that.  I logged on here to see if I'm doing something wrong, and apparently, I am just part of a group of people who paid but...

So...you didn't have a formal agreement about how she would be paid?  No deposit terms?  No "half now - half upon completion" kind of deal?  If not, she's free to invoice you for whatever she wants.  And you are...

I don't work in fondant much, but when I do, I use MMF exclusively.  I have never really had a problem handling it.  I do roll it out on a large plastic mat, though - very similar to Sweet Wise's "The Mat.?  That helped...

I'm another one who doesn't like IMBC, taste-wise.  I also don't care for it's stability (or lack thereof).  I use IMBC upon request and only if the cake won't be subjected to a lot of physical stress.  I'd be scared to...

I've been decorating cakes for decades, and I JUST NOW figured out that my buttercream is probably too stiff.  No matter what I did, it wouldn't smooth out.  My next cake will be done tomorrow, and I'm going for a much...
