Creating a sugar paste scroll can be a charming and impressive addition to your cake decorating repertoire. It adds a touch of elegance and whimsy to any cake design. In this step-by-step guide, we will show you how to make a stunning sugar paste scroll that will surely make your cakes stand out from the crowd.

What You’ll Need

  • Fondant or gum paste
  • Rolling pin
  • Knife or pizza cutter
  • Edible glue or water
  • Paintbrush
  • Edible dust or food coloring (optional)

Step 1: Prepare Your Workspace

Before you begin, make sure your workspace is clean and dry. Dust your rolling surface with a small amount of cornstarch or powdered sugar to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Roll Out the Sugar Paste

Take a small portion of sugar paste and knead it until it becomes soft and pliable. Roll it out evenly to about 1/8 inch thickness using a rolling pin.

Step 3: Shape the Scroll

Using a knife or pizza cutter, cut out a rectangular shape from the rolled-out sugar paste. The size of the rectangle will depend on the desired size of your scroll. Round off one end of the rectangle to create a scroll shape.

Step 4: Create the Scroll Texture

Using a knife or the back of a paintbrush, gently press vertical lines onto the scroll to create the appearance of rolled-up paper. Start from the rounded end and work your way down, spacing the lines evenly.

Step 5: Curl the Scroll

Take the rounded end of the scroll and gently roll it towards the straight end. This will create a curled effect, similar to an unfurled scroll.

Step 6: Secure the Scroll

Apply a small amount of edible glue or water onto the straight end of the scroll and press it down to secure the shape. Hold it in place for a few seconds until it adheres.

Step 7: Customize and Paint (Optional)

If desired, you can customize your scroll by adding details like embossed patterns or hand-painted designs. Use edible dust or food coloring mixed with a small amount of water to achieve desired effects. Allow it to dry completely before handling.

Step 8: Place the Scroll on Your Cake

Your sugar paste scroll is now ready to be placed on your cake! Simply position it in a way that complements your cake design. You can use additional edible glue or water to attach it securely to the cake surface.

And there you have it! A beautifully crafted sugar paste scroll to add an enchanting touch to your cake creations. With a bit of practice, you’ll be able to create elaborate scrolls that will impress your friends and clients.

Remember, cake decorating is all about creativity and experimentation. Don’t be afraid to try different techniques and designs to make your creations truly unique.
