Easy gumpaste Duck

A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to make a Duck themed Baby Shower cake for my cousin who was hosting a Baby Shower for her sister in law.
I made a lot of details for the cake which I will be sharing with you in the next few days.
EASY GUMPASTE DUCKY

Supplies needed:

• yellow gumpaste for the duck


• orange fondant or gumpaste for the beak


• white fondant or gumpaste for "bubbles"


• small rolling pin


• duck cookie cutter


• royal icing


• water


• knife tool or tooth pick


• black edible writer


• small petal cutter (optional)

-To make the ducks roll out the yellow gumpaste and cut the ducks out with the cookie cutter, put them on top of parchment paper on a flat surface ( I used a cookie sheet) and let them dry for a few days.

-Roll the white gumpaste in your hands forming small "bubbles" and let them dry with the ducks.

The day that you are decorating the cake...

-Attach the duck to the cake with  royal icing, then attach the bubbles.

-Roll out the orange gumpaste and using the cookie cutter cut the beak and attach to the duck with a dab of water.

-I wanted to add a few wings to the duck, the easier, the better!
-Roll out yellow gumpaste and using a small petal cutter cut the "wings" and make details with the knife tool or with a tooth pick.
-Attach to the duck with a dab of water.

There you have a simple and cute yellow ducky!
