How to use the numbers set:
Roll the gum paste out onto your cornstarch dusted surface. Roll it as thinly as you can, about 1mm thick. Rolling a long, thin piece saves time, as the numbers cutters are joined.
Firmly press your desired number into the gum paste. While pressing downwards onto the cutter, shimmied it left and right a bit, to help loosen the area of paste around the number.
Lift the cutter away, and with your fingertips, lightly brush the excess gum paste away from the number.
Try tapping the cutter on your work surface to release the number. If that doesn't work, take a toothpick, insert it into one area of the gum paste (not too deep) and gently peel the number out. For easier release, let the gum paste dry a few minutes before cutting out the numbers.
Place it onto the parchment paper to dry.
Let your numbers dry for a day or two. You could use it right away, but if the number is dry it's a little easier to place. Note; if you'd like your numbers to sit on a curved surface, use them right away. Gum paste dries quite hard, and it's easier to use when it's not dry, than trying to heat it up and reshape later.
Once you're ready to place your numbers on the cookie, cake or muffin, dab tiny bits of glue or royal icing onto the back of each number, and adhere.
