• for best results we recommend using a good quality modelling paste like Saracino, Cake Dutchess or Squires Mexican / Sugar Modelling Paste as this is less stretchy than traditional Flower Paste
• Patchwork Cutters specifically recommend Renshaw Flower Modelling Paste and Squires Mexican / Sugar Modelling Paste
• easy to use - roll out Modelling Paste on a modelling board (lightly greased with Jem Petal base or white vegetable fat and/or dusted with icing sugar), also lightly grease the cutter and press cutter firmly into paste - attach to cake using edible glue or separate with a sugarcraft trim knife, shape and allow to dry for 3D models
• many Patchwork Cutters can also be used as design embossers - simply press softly into icing for an embossed design which can be overpiped with icing if you desire
• the distinctive framework style may mean a slightly different way of working compared to FMM and PME cutters - more like working with Jem cutters - but customers have told us they got used to this very quickly and that they're are great to use
• for sugar flowers, add detail with powder / dust icing colouring
• Patchwork Cutters was founded by Marion Frost in 1994 and have been designing innovative and exciting cutters for over 20 years
• manufactured in the UK
• retail packed with instructions - all designs normally all in same size pack approx 27cm x 15.5cm overall
• PLEASE NOTE multi cutter sets come on the original plastic frame (like the parts of an Airfix model) - they often come loose in storage and transit but will be in the package
• there's not a great deal we can do on price (Patchwork Cutters prices are really good to begin with!) but we'll always make sure our customers pay less than RRP
• normally black or dark blue plastic
• most designs fine for sugarpaste icing, but even better with gum paste and flower modelling paste
• use good quality paste to avoid it sticking to the intricate cutters - avoid supermarket brands and add a little Tylo powder as required
• for best results use release agent eg Jem Petal base
• food approved plastic - complaint with EU reg. 10/2011 cert. 2012/4802
