Baby Bassinets And Instructions
I used the Wilton Easter mold set, this is the med sized mold in the box of three....you put two cups of granulated sugar in a mixing bowl per side of mold....you add one TSP of water to the sugar and mix with your hand till you get a slightly wet/dry feeling, (if the sugar is too wet it wont work for you, and IF you can get it out of the mold in one piece it will be too soggy to dry properly and will discolor) You place the sugar in one side of the mold packing it in the whole time, when the mold is packed you smooth the top with your hand and place a piece of wax paper folded in a four layer square over it, as you flip the mold place it on a waxed caked board, lift the mold off and check for any cracks or air pockets, if there are any, lift the mold back up and replace the sugar back into the bowl and try again....if all is well place the mold back on top on pull the wax paper out from under the sugar mold....do this for both sides... While the sugar is still soft cut threw the rounded side mold of the sugar (this will be the hood of the bassinet)..(one mold is rounded side and one has a flat side) cut about midway on the narrow end with a sharp knife...push the cut edge back up against the sugar mold.... Let set for at least 8 hours to harden on the outside about a quarter inch..I make mine at night just before going to bed and when I get up they are ready to hull out....flip the sugar molds over in your hand and take a regular teaspoon and start hulling the moist sugar out, very gently till you touch the harden edges..on the rounded mold you cut into with the knife to make the hood...remove the narrow end you cut threw and hull the wide end out too,making sure you also hull the opening from where you cut the end off from. I have a "base" mold I used for the stand...but you can use the flattened side of the mold(the one you didn't cut threw/the bed) to sit the bassinet up right. Take the wide ended mold you cut threw/the hood and use your Royal Icing to adhere it to the wide end of the bottom mold that makes the bed ....allow this to sit and dry a spell...then use your icing and tip #16 to makes a shell border along the seam where the hood and bed are connected on the inside..then lay your doll into the bottom mold securing it with the Royal icing. After that take your tip # 104 and ruffle border around the bed and then ruffle around the hood...then I use a #16 open star tip to zig zag the ruffle edges...take your # 3 tip and make the stitching on the zig zaged edges.. I used fondant icing for the blankets..I rolled out the icing and made a rectangle, cutting the edges smooth and used my sewing tracer wheel very gently to make the stitched quilted look, then I used a pencil to make the ruffled look on the edges of the blanket. I laid the blanket on the baby and formed it to hang over the edge of the bassinet and then took a #2 tip and made the dots on the blanket and then my #3 tip to make the bows on each side. I used my # 102 petal tip to make the roses and the # 352 tip to make the leaves. Happy Molding, Mary :o)
