As someone who started working in gum paste prior to Cold Porcelain and who believes that it is very important for any cake decorator to have flower skills in both , sugar and clay I use gum paste techniques whenever possible, and explain the alternative ways to achieve the same effect if you are making your flowers out of sugar.
