Yellow Sugar Paste Floreal: ready-to-use fondant for professional cake decoration

Floreal Yellow Sugar Paste is a ready-to-use rolled fondant for covering and modelling cakes, supplied in a foodservice carton of 12 packs of 300 g (3.6 kg total). With 71% sugar and a smooth, elastic, gluten-free dough, it rolls out cleanly to a uniform sheet, holds vivid yellow colour and is ideal for celebration cakes, sugar flowers and modelled figures. Made in Italy by Floreal, a Milan decoration house founded in 1961.

What is sugar paste (rolled fondant)

Sugar paste, known internationally as rolled fondant, is a pliable confectionery dough based on sugar and glucose syrup used to cover cakes with a flawless matte finish and to model decorations. Unlike marzipan it contains no almond, and unlike royal icing it stays soft and workable. It became the signature medium of British and Italian cake design from the late twentieth century and is today the standard tool of pastry labs for wedding cakes, themed cakes and sugar art.

Floreal: Milan decoration since 1961

Floreal s.r.l. was founded in Milan in 1961 and is today based in Assago (Milan), at Via Galileo Galilei 9/D. For over fifty years Floreal has been a reference for edible decoration: royal-icing flowers, pastillage, wafer paper, chocolate decorations and sugar paste. The company unites quality, innovation and family values, with Made in Italy raw materials, controlled production processes and rigorous product testing, exporting to the main European and world markets.

Sensory and working characteristics

The paste has a bright, even yellow colour, a fine and compact texture and a clean sweet flavour. It is soft enough to be kneaded warm and rolled thin without cracking, yet firm enough to hold modelled shapes. It is gluten-free, contains no declared allergens and carries no artificial off-notes, making it suitable for covering, draping, cutting with shape cutters and sculpting three-dimensional decorations.

Professional uses in the pastry lab

1) Cake covering: roll the paste to 3-4 mm, brush the cake with apricot jam or buttercream, then drape and smooth with a fondant smoother; about 500 g covers a 20 cm round cake. 2) Modelled figures and 3D decorations for themed and children's cakes. 3) Cut-out shapes (stars, flowers, letters) with plunger cutters and embossers. 4) Yellow accents for sunflowers, mimosa, lemons, bees and Easter or spring themes. 5) Combine with sugar paste in other colours for multicolour designs. Warm the paste slightly before use to make it more pliable.

Pairings and complementary products

Pair Floreal yellow sugar paste with white and coloured sugar paste for full palettes, with edible glue or apricot jam as adhesive, with rolling pins, smoothers and modelling tools, and with edible colours and dusts for shading. It works alongside sponge bases, buttercream and ganache in the assembly of decorated cakes.
