What sugar paste is
Sugar paste, also known as rolled fondant or pasta di zucchero, is a pliable sugar dough used in cake design to obtain flawless smooth surfaces and three-dimensional decorations. Unlike royal icing or buttercream, it is rolled into thin sheets and draped over the cake, then trimmed and smoothed. It is the standard medium for celebration cakes, wedding tiers, cupcakes and sculpted figures.
Flor by Floreal: artistic pastry decorations from Milan since 1961
Flor is the sugar-paste line of Floreal SRL, an Italian company founded in Milan in 1961 and based in Assago (Milan). For over sixty years Floreal has specialised in artistic decorations for pastry, royal icing flowers, gum paste, wafer decorations and sugar plaques, becoming a reference point for pastry shops, bakeries and gelato labs in Italy and abroad. The Flor sugar paste is made in Italy.
Texture and handling
The paste is soft and elastic at room temperature, fragrant and easy to work even for those approaching cake design for the first time. It does not crack when rolled thin and stretches evenly over curved surfaces. If it becomes too firm in storage, warm it briefly between your hands to restore plasticity. The matte orange finish is ideal for autumn, Halloween, citrus and playful themed cakes.
