Topic Three : Pastillage

# Pastillage is a sugar-based dough used for decorating and creating decorations for pastry, showpiece work and decorative molded forms. The dough is much like clay or play-dough where you can knead it and roll it out. Pastillage is worked then allowed to dry, setting up to a hard, sugar-based decoration. Depending on the mix, pastillage can be formed and sanded to remove any rough spots after it has completely dried. 

For our third topic, we were asked to create a pastillage sculpture. As usual, before start making a product we need to decide what shaped are we going to make and skectch it on a manila card. 

There are many, many recipes out there and most have the same ingredients. Below are the recipe to make the dough.

1. Firstly, mix well all the ingredients until it formed a dough.

2. Roll the dough quickly on a flat surface until bla bla. Just like you roll a pizza dough.

3. Then carve the dough by using the manila card that have been cut to trace the shaped.

4. After done with the cutting. Let it dry. Meanwhile , make the based for the pastillage to stand.

5. After the pastillage have been dry, glue all the pastillage together on the based. 

Doneeeeeeee!
