I've been watching the Food Network again. This time its Ace of Cakes and I notice the cake trend these days is to use gum paste as opposed to traditional frosting.
My question is... who has had a gum paste 'frosted' cake? Did you actually eat the gum paste? How did it compare to frosting?
What about the cake inside? Did the gum paste seem to affect the cake's texture or flavor?
I also notice they use something called molding chocolate or sculping chocolate or something like that. You know what I'm talking about if you've seen it... They made the 'tires' for the Jeep cake out of it.
What does that taste like? Is it actually chocolate?
