I don't know about an online tutorial to specificaly use those tools... but it does come with a little booklet that tells you how each tool is used.
I've had the kit for a couple months now and still have only used about half of the tools, however I have not gotten into gumpaste flowers, which I think you use most of the tools for.
Search on youtube for something you would like to create, and you will be sure to see that they use tools that you now have.
toedna, aine32, donnalee, and Mayen have great fondant/gumpaste youtube tutorials!
Happy CAking!

i have the 5 piece and sponge to make pedals, that cCndy from wilton forum sent to me. how great was that!. i've searched for other uses but can't fine anything, i know the veining tool, the ball tool, have made tons of roses. some one posted a cake where they used the shell on the bottom border of their cake looked nice. and the pointed one with the funny looking sides i have no clue, i'm also looking for more things i can do with my tips, but can't find that either, hope someone can help Diane

If you go on YouTube there are several videos that show how to use the tools for making fondant/gumpaste flowers, and other decorations, but not specifically how to use each tool unfortunately.



I have this tool set as well, and also have only used a few, like Calivettie said the little booklet is very helpful on showing you what the tools are used for, and if you play around with them you will be surprised what you can do with them. Go the the Wilton site they also have a forum and the people is just as helpful as on here.


I have this kit too - but it didn't come with a booklet for some reason. I've had it a while - do you think I could buy a booklet if I contact Wilton?
You know I thought I was crazy...cause mine didn't either. My MIL bought one shortly after me and she had a booklet. I didn't even know mine was supposed to either until I saw hers..

I was just thinking ... mine didn't come with a booklet. I wonder if that is something they had added recently. Maybe we should all contact Wilton and see if they will send us one.





What I was talking about..is the pamplet that shows each tool and what its for. Maybe I need more coffee

ok - i'll call her again cuz she said it never had anything like that - but if your MIL's did then maybe she just didn't know what she was talking about. I'll have to call tomorrow though cuz they're closed now. Thanks for telling me what to ask for

Oh no don't that, I might be completely wrong. I would hate for you to waste your time.

I have this tool kit, and so far I've found that if I just mess around, and experiment with each one, I find what I can use it for. Don't get stuck thinking a tool has only one use! I've used all of them, mostly with flowers, but also with borders. It's like playdoh fun for adults!

the wilton tool kit, which I bought about 2 months ago, did have an info sheet describing each tool and what it can do (it wasn't a booklet, more like a single sheet of paper)

See I know I wasn't crazy ((sigh)) and I know for sure, sure, sure that I didn't throw mine away either. They didn't give me one..thats my story and i'm sticking to it.

Yes ,it is the newest, gum paste tool set ,that they just brought out a few months ago, and it does come with a little pamphlet , by the way She thought you were talking about the gumpaste flowers tools set that is totally different, that is a big book with flower cutters and instructions on how to make gumpaste flowers

That's my story too - I'm the world's worst pack rat and I never throw anything away - I even asked my sister if it had anything cuz she was with me when I got it and she said no and remembers thinking it should have. I'm still gonna call tomorrow - worst she can say is no, right? and it's a toll free number, so...

Yes, Jer702 the kit comes with a pamphlet/sheet, you are not crazy! Well at least mine did. However, I agree with averagemom that its certainly fun to just experiment and find new ways (or new for me) to use them.
However, because everyone seems to want this info I took pics of min so you can see the pictures... sorry my scanner isn't working so its not the greatest quality...

Basically the palette knife (1) is to lift petals and positions flowers in hard to reach areas.
Modeling stick (2) thick (3) thin are great for rufffling petals and leaves and adding frill detail. Also can be used as a small rolling pin.
Veining tool (4/5) marks thin or wide lines on leaves and flowers to create veins.
Shell tool and knife (6 and 7) leaves elegant impression on borders or trim. Knife trims petals and leaves.
Dogbone tool (8 and 9) cups flower centers to add depth and dimension. Also shapes and softens flowers.
Serrated quilting wheel and cutting wheel (10 and 11)
Quilting wheel imprints pattern on petals, borders etc. Cutting wheel is great for strips.
Umbrella tool and division side ( 12 and 13) add details to throats of flowers and tops of buds. Imprints vein marks for easy scoring.
Serrated(14) and cone (15) tools.
Cone edge hollows out flowers and tops of buds. After petals have been formed on flowers, spear center of flower with serrated side to create natural looking centers.
Ball tool (16 and 17) is perfect for softening and smoothing outer edges of petal without tearing. Place flower petals on thin foam to soften edges.
All wording is condensed from the Wilton 10 pc Gum paste tool set instruction sheet.
Hope this helps some!

calivettie--did anyone tell you how awesome your are yet today? You freaking rock

I completely agree - thanks a bunch!!!

AMEN!!! This definitely did not come with mine. Thanks, calivettie!!

I bought the Wilton 32 piece gum paste flower making set from Joanne's. It was 21.99 + tax but I had a 40% off coupon.
I bought it because I want to try my hand at gum paste flowers and had no tools whatsoever. It was way less expensive than buying them piecemeal.
It came with a great gum paste flowers book with designs and instructions. This was a big book, 81/2 x 11 glossy 40 pages.
The tools it came with was a rolling pin, and 2 modeling sticks, 24 flower and leaf cutters, 2 foam squares (petal pads) and a small rolling mat with protector flap.
Overall it was a great deal with my coupon. (BUT IT DID NOT HAVE THE 5 PETAL ROSE CUTTER I was hoping for, nor the BALL Tool I was hoping for either. I did go on line and order those separately)
