Need a reliable and fool proof gumpaste recipe?

This is the one that changed my flower making game forever.

Many years ago, I struggled with making realistic looking sugar flowers. I kept thinking that my method of making them was wrong, later did I then realize that it was the recipe that I was using. It was a store bought one and it was really terrible to begin with, it wouldn't stretch, it took forever to dry and it impeded my sugar flower making process.

Beautiful realistic looking Sugar Flowers starts with using the right foundation.

When I first started making sugar flowers back in 2010, I was constantly frustrated that I wasn't able to make the gum paste "behave" the way I wanted to; i.e.

  • 1. It would NOT hold up its shape
  • 2. It kept melting no matter how much air-conditioning I was working in
  • 3. The gum paste could not stretch well and it kept breaking
  • 4. My gumpaste flowers look chunky and unrealistic

"Gum paste basics are so important to Winifred's teaching structure"

Verly (@keik.bakingstudio)

Winifred guided me through my curiousity for gum paste. Prior to the class, I had to search for gum paste tutorials online, but many only scratched the surface. Not only did I discover many new techniques and concepts in our sessions, Winifred made it easy to follow with her style of instruction.

Here is what you will learn in my gumpaste class:
  • How to make homemade gum paste with just 4 simple ingredients in JUST under 5 minutes
  • How to adjust the recipe for it to fit into YOUR environment
  • Learn how to work with this gumpaste so you get the best out of it
  • How to store colored and non-coloured gumpaste
  • How to use the gumpaste immediately without having it to rest 12/24 hours overnight
  • Winifred's personal tips for working sugar flowers in a PDF Guide

"I LOVE your gumpaste tutorial!"

How to store your sugar flowers forever?

A lot of you have been asking me how to store sugar flowers or wafer paper flowers.
Today I made a video to teach you a simple $8 hack that would help you store your flowers FOREVER.

Get inspired: Gumpaste Flowers you can make using this gumpaste recipe

You get to stretch your gumpaste reaaaal thin and to varying shapes and sizes, allowing for maximum creativity to flow through your fingers.

BEST part of this recipe is that it dries quick so you don't have to wait too long to put these gumpaste flowers on your cake.

"Winifred taught me everything I need to know; from very basic skills such as making gumpaste from scratch and color theory before learning how to make the sugar flowers."

Vanessa (@sugarcoated.bakes)

Aside from the actual learning of how to make sugar flowers, Winifred taught me to pay attention to details such as colour, texture, and movement! Little details that I would have previously looked over, but in practice makes all the difference. I also think that this attention to detail can be applied to so many other aspects of cake decorating.

Winifred Kristé

Founder & Cake Designer

Hi I’m Winifred, and I teach passionate cake artists how to excel in design through the use of exquisite color palettes and life-like florals.

When I started my cake design business 14+ years ago, I learnt everything the hard and costly way—through trial and error. I clearly remember the frustration of trying to figure out what tools to use, which mediums to work with, how to be more creative, why my colors looked like everyone else’s, and wondering who I could trust for advice.

Having witnessed my years of experimentation, fellow vendors and industry friends began asking for my advice. It was such a joy to be able to support them and witness the ripple effect of my education.

This was the beginning of my passion for teaching. I’ve since taught in-person classes in Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, USA and UK, and helped 5000+ students through my online classes and courses.

It’s my mission to empower cake artists, hobbyists and small business owners with the right tools, skills and mindset to flourish in doing what they love & to enjoy the process.

I hope to be able to support and welcome you into our learning community, too!
