About this deal

sealed packs per box - please note that because of an international shortage of suitable raw material, the box design changed in 2020 during the COVID pandemic - the underside of the current style of box folds together (ie is not taped) so is not quite as strong as the original design.

As a home hobby baker, I get asked to do friends cakes often - for my first wedding cake I decided the normal supermarket sugar paste wasn't good enough. Couture is great to work with and some of the girls in the group say it's even better since Cake Stuff did some improvements. Made using the highest quality ingredients, this is the perfect white sugarpaste for wedding and high-end celebration cakes, where quality of finish means everything. It feels much better quality and much less sticky than I've used before and I shall not be going back to the old brand. Sealed packs minimise the possibility of the paste forming a crust, so there's no longer any risk of little hard pieces of sugar being mixed in when kneaded.It could be that a small mixing batch wasn't properly mixed and your block didn't have enough gum tragacanth and/or issues with hot weather. Since its launch a few years ago, Couture has become one of the most sought after sugarpastes in the UK. which I've experienced with a lot of other brands, but not any more, as this sugarpaste handles excellently because of its consistency, it's not too sticky, smells devine and tastes delicious without being overly sweet, please do not stop making this wonderful sugarpaste! kg Couture White Fondant Icing Roll is made of high-quality fondant, which makes it both easy to work with and suitable for a wide number of applications, including wedding, anniversary, and birthday cakes. Couture is the perfect sugarpaste for wedding and high-end celebration cakes, where quality of finish means everything.

As a Massa Ticino user I was slightly sceptical about the buzz on my FB group about Couture, especially after being badly let down by CDC The Sugarpaste which was cheap rubbish. It has completely changed the way I decorate cakes and looking back at old photos I am convinced my cakes now have a better finish with cleaner edges and smoother surfaces. We have taken care to ensure that the product information provided is correct and up to date at the time of listing.Please note: natural oils may come to the surface of the paste, this is normal, simply knead them back into the paste. I am in a closed Facebook group where a couple of ladies mentioned that Couture has been soft and sticky recently. A must-have for wedding cake makers looking for a smooth icing that dries to an almost porcelain-like, silky finish.

It comes ready to roll for maximum convenience, has a vibrant and smooth white finish, and is suitable for use by both professional bakers and cake decorators, and at home. Sugar 78%, Glucose syrup, Palm kernel fat, water, Starch (potato), Glycerin (humectant), carboxymethyl cellulose, vanilla oil, Emulsifier: Polysorbate 80, Potassium sorbate, Citric acid, Flavouring.Made using ultra-fine icing sugar and the finest gum tragacanth, these luxury ingredients help create the smoothest fondant yet for a flawlessly satin smooth icing that dries to an almost porcelain-like, silky finish. It is important to knead well before use to activate the gums for best performance - the ultra-fine icing sugar creates a 'dense' paste which, in cooler weather, may feel difficult to knead. Sugar, Glucose Syrup, Water, Palm Oil, Humectant: Vegetable Glycerine E422, Emulsifier: Mono- and Di-Glycerides of Fatty Acids E471, Stabiliser: Gum Tragacanth E413, Preservative: Potassium Sorbate E202, Natural Flavouring. Couture is ideal for the latest cake design trends - it will not over-stretch, droop or tear on deeper and larger cakes and multi-tiered cakes.

This is THE BEST sugarpaste ever to work with, I usually dread covering my cakes because of the usual tearing/cracking at the edges etc. To get the best out of Couture, ensure you have thoroughly kneaded the paste before rolling out to work the natural gums and create the elasticity. I have been using couture since getting a little free sample at cake international and I simply dont use anything else nowadays. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. Often imitated but never bettered - this is the sugar paste that allows you to decorate your cakes with real finesse and panache.

We'll arrange replacements no problem at all for you as we'd be keen for you to experience Couture as it should be. I was also working in very warm summer weather - when I tend to avoid using sugarpaste but I had no problems with it being too warm. Often imitated but never bettered - this is the sugar paste that allows you to decorate your cakes with real finesse and panache. em>CAKE STUFF REPLY:  Hi Jennifer, many thanks for taking the trouble to leave a review.
