I'm in the US...

I had that problem with the date being off on posts.
I went into my "profile" and fixed it...sorry I can't recall exactly what I did...it was a long time ago!
I think it was under Time Zone.

I'll PM you the info as well.

I agree with FlourPots. I use fondant mixed with Tylose Powder. I use about 1 tsp. of Tylose to 1lb. of fondant. I like to use the Satin Ice Fondant, but have also used the MMF.

It's important to prepare your fondant by throughly kneading it before you start to model with it. I also suggest you make sure to roll your fondant into a completely smooth ball before you begin to shape your figure. Any imperfections in you fondant will only show worse when it dries.

FlowerPots,
I'm not sure if this is going to be posted twice as the first time my computer went wacky, so forgive me if this is duplicated. I looked at your pictures and can't believe how smooth they are. I've been trying to make figures with gum paste and all I get are cracked and rough looking things. I would greatly appreciate it if you could send me your recipe and any tips because I'm almost to the point of giving up. Thank you very much.
