Decorating biscuits with sugarpaste, also known as fondant, can be a fun and creative way to add a touch of personalization to your baked treats. Whether you’re a novice or an experienced baker, this step-by-step guide will provide you with all the information you need to attach fondant to your biscuits flawlessly. Let’s get started!

What do you need?

Before you begin, make sure you have the following items handy:

  • Baked biscuits
  • Sugarpaste or fondant in desired colors
  • Cornstarch or icing sugar for dusting
  • Rolling pin
  • Food-safe paintbrush
  • Edible glue or water
  • Cookie cutters or fondant cutters
  • Small sharp knife or an edible pen (optional)

Step 1: Prepare your biscuits

Ensure your baked biscuits are completely cooled before you start decorating. Warm biscuits may cause the fondant to melt or become too soft, making it difficult to work with.

Step 2: Roll out the fondant

Dust a clean surface with cornstarch or icing sugar to prevent sticking. Begin rolling out the sugarpaste to a thickness of approximately ¼ inch using a rolling pin. Take note of the size of your biscuits to determine how much fondant you’ll need.

Step 3: Cut the fondant

Using cookie cutters or fondant cutters, carefully cut out shapes from the rolled-out fondant. Ensure the size of the fondant shapes matches that of your baked biscuits.

Step 4: Attach the fondant

Apply a thin layer of edible glue or water onto the surface of the biscuits. This helps the fondant adhere securely. If needed, you can mark the center of the biscuits lightly with a small sharp knife or an edible pen for guidance.

Next, gently place the fondant cutouts onto the biscuits, aligning them with the marked center if available. Press down lightly, ensuring there are no air bubbles trapped underneath. Smooth out any wrinkles or imperfections with your fingertips or a slightly damp paintbrush.

Step 5: Add finishing touches

Once the fondant is securely attached to the biscuits, you can unleash your creativity! Use additional fondant in different colors to make small decorative elements like flowers, hearts, or letters. Attach these details using edible glue or water.

Final Tips and Tricks

  • Experiment with different colors and shapes to create unique designs.
  • Allow the decorated biscuits to dry and set completely before serving or packaging.
  • If the fondant becomes too soft or sticky, refrigerate it for a few minutes until it firms up.
  • Store decorated biscuits in an airtight container to maintain freshness.

With these simple steps, you can now confidently decorate biscuits with sugarpaste, elevating them to a whole new level of charm and deliciousness. Enjoy your baking experience and let your creativity run wild!
