DIY Fondant Flower Forming Cups

Flower forming cups can be very expensive, so why not try this as a less costly alternative?
You Will Need


A drill.
A small drill bit.
Sandpaper.
Economy paint pallets.
Ensure that the pallets you purchase have a dome bottom, the flat ones will be of no use.
These can cost as little as 50p, which is a lot less than a forming cup.

Drill Holes in Bottom of Each Cup

Take your drill, with a small drill bit, I'd say no bigger than 2mm.
Drill a hole in the bottom of each cup. Make sure your hole is as close to the centre as possible

Sand Off Scuffs

Turn your pallet upside down and, using the sandpaper, sand off any scuffs left by the drilling process.
Wash and Use

Wash the pallet.
It's now ready to use.
If you need to insert a wire, stand your tray on a cooling rack so the wire can hang below.
