Claydough Models? Can you make them?
I want to make a cake and put my own made clay dough model on the top.
I don’t want to buy ready made charatcers, and I don’t want to make it from scratch.
Can you buy claydough? Do you use Fimo?
I’m a bit stuck!
Thanks
I think the Fimo would be the best. I think the clay dough would not get firm enough.
The Fimo, once it is baked would last.
I would suggest placing what ever figure that you are making on a plastic base. I think the Fimo should not come in contact with food utensils. I have seen shows where they specifically say not to use the rollers that are used for rolling out the Fimo for food. I do not know if it is because it is toxic or not. I do not know if that changes once the product is baked.
I think the colors in the Fimo are much nicer than the clay dough. The other suggestion I have is check at your local craft store and see if they have a better idea there may be another product that could be used. Maybe even something like a fondant. I don’t know if fondant gets hard or not.

Paper Clay $17.31 Paper clay, a plastic modeling mix of clay, paper pulp, and water, is an extraordinarily versatile material. It is easy to use, extremely strong in an unfired state, and easily repairable at nearly every stage in the forming process. The final glazed and fired result can be indistinguishable from conventional clay, except that paper clay products are much lighter in weight. This last feature is particularly useful for wall installations and delicate sculptural forms. A relatively recent development, paper clay has been a mixed blessing for sculptors. While it is extremely malleable, its short drying time can lead to cracking and fragility. In this revised and expanded edition of "Paper Clay," Rosette Gault clearly explains how to make, use, and fire paper clay successfully. She also brings the reader up to date on new developments in the field, including methods for the ecologically sound use of paper clay. This handbook incorporates several helpful charts and illustrations, featuring firing schedules and proportion guidelines, as well as cross sections and templates for common forms. Using the work of an international group of artists, Gault illustrates the flexibility of this exciting medium in a clear and accessible style. The text is replete with photographs and figures to demonstrate the techniques and their innumerable artistic applications. |
