This is a great question, and one that a lot of people don't know the answer to. So, if you make a cake and cover it in fondant, you can absolutely chill the cake. In fact, many fillings and buttercreams make it necessary to. That being said, if I just made a topper or figurine out of gum paste, I wouldn't chill it. The reason is that the fridge has a much higher humidity than you have just out in the regular air, so they can get a bit soft in the fridge. I would leave off the topper until just before you deliver the cake (or serve the cake). Also, if you choose to chill a fondant covered cake, the cake will naturally get a sheen of water along the top from the change in temperature and humidity. This is perfectly normal. Just try not to touch it and allow it to dry in the open air for about half an hour, and the shiny-ness will go away. I hope that helps you. Let me know if you need to know anything else.
Well, I've never been in a monsoon, so I can't speak from experience, but I have heard of other people putting their figures in the oven. Don't turn on the oven, or they will melt, but just turn on the light. Let them set for several hours. Ovens are usually the least humid place in the house. Just please don't forget to remove them before you use the oven again!
@@AmericanBaker thanks for ur prompt reply... Another thing I want to ask once I had mixed tylose powder in fondant to make some toppers n kept for drying they didn't become sticky they were soft not hard enough but after keeping them for 8 hrs or so some black spots appeared on the topper what is the reason?
I have no idea. That has never happened to me. I can only guess. Do you have a mold problem? It really sounds like you are dealing with very high humidity. It definitely makes it harder to make figures of any kind.

Aren't they fun? I haven't seen them all, but I love the ones I have seen.
Fondant or gumpaste is more expensive?
It's usually about the same price, but it depends where you buy it from.

@@AmericanBaker in the summer it dries on its own?
Yes. It sometimes needs a day or two in the open air, but they usually dry on their own

what are u using in that bottle to attach petals for a flower?
I use edible glue to attach fondant to fondant. Water works almost as well, but the edible glue dries harder.
thank u dear....u hv been so helpful
