Are you tired of using the same old cookie cutters to decorate your baked goods? Perhaps it’s time to add a personal touch with a custom fondant stamp. Creating a custom fondant stamp may seem daunting, but it’s a lot easier than it sounds.
First, gather your materials. You’ll need a piece of rubber, a craft knife or scissors, a pencil, and a design. Once you have your subject in mind, sketch it onto the rubber using a pencil. Keep in mind that the design should be simple, so go for bold lines and shapes. Precise details will be lost in the transfer process. Next, use your craft knife or scissors to cut out your design, making sure to angle the blade away from the image. This will give you a clean cut.
Once your design is cut out, roll out some fondant and press your stamp onto the surface. Make sure the stamp has enough pressure to indent the fondant. If the fondant is too soft, let it dry out a bit before attempting to stamp it. You can also use a little cornstarch on the stamp to prevent sticking.
Voila. Your custom fondant stamp is ready to use. Try it out on cookies, cupcakes or cakes. With a little creativity, you can make stunning personalized desserts in no time.
