****I used raw ingredients. There is a commercial dry mix???? I had no idea!

*****Well, first of all it helps to use POWDERED sugar! (The first mistake
I made)

******I used various sized plates and bowls to mold my sugar plate. I am
creating an entire place setting. I also found a wonderful picture of a
design used on a place setting in the seventeenth century (circa 1610) in a
book called Painters & Food, The Dutch Table by Gillian Riley. I am a
later period persona and tend to gear my displays that way.
I hope that answers your questions. :>
