I use this recipe all the time; I follow all Nicholas' Craftsy classes and he was kind enough to share the recipe on, i think, the Ultimate Sugar Rose class. Highly recommend it.

Hafs- I'm sorry, but I am not exactly sure how to help you out. Where are these numbers coming from? They are not in Chef Nicholas' Gumpaste recipe (above), but if you tell me what recipe you have maybe I can help.

At least her in the US, 10x refers to the fineness of the powdered sugar (icing sugar), meaning that it's been sifted 10 times for quality. Domino Sugar brand powdered sugar uses this in their labels.

Thanking you for this clear-cut recipe and the details too!
I do have a couple of questions:
1. What is the difference or similarity between tylose, CMC and tragacanth gum powders? Here in India, it's not easily made available and each seller vouches for the product they have. Many recipes I have come upon says fondant plus one of the above. So please do clarify.
2. How long does a flower creation using fondant or gumpaste last for? If stored well after the flowers are dried and arranged - how long till it goes 'bad' - if at all?

Tylose is CMC. They are the same. Tylose is a substitute for Gum Tragacanth. You can add 1-2 tsps Tylose to 1 lb (1/2 kg) fondant to make it more like gumpaste also.
My friend still has her gumpaste flowers from her wedding cake that was made 20 years ago. She has kept them in a glass container out of the sun and in a china cabinet and they still look great. If you keep them covered, out of heat, sunlight and humidity, that is in air- conditioned room, they can last many years. Some people spray Lacquer Spray or confectionery glaze on them to make them shiny and humidity resistant.

Hi Pinki! Are you talking about gum paste or rolled fondant? The recipe above is what Chef Nicholas Lodge uses for all his gum paste needs! He generally does not make his own rolled fondant, but there are loads of recipes online to try. You can find many recipes on Cake Central's website. I would recommend trying a few different types to see what works best for the climate you live in, and what you like best as far as texture and taste! Good Luck!
