Video Tutorials: Cutting Gum Paste with a Cricut

I had never heard of the Cricut machines until recently, and now it seems they are everywhere (even my mom mentioned them to me, and she has no clue what gum paste is. right, mom?) I’m so curious about these electric machines to cut fondant and gum paste that are supposed to speed cake decorating. So needless to say, when Joy’s Life.com sent me links to video tutorials for cutting gum paste with a Cricut, I was immediately intrigued. Find the step-by-step, tip packed tutorials HERE. (Update: The tutorials show how to cut gum paste with the paper cutter. Find more info on the new Cricut Cake HERE.)

be aware, the reviews are coming in now and there are LOTS of negative ones. Seems it isn’t working well for many people and they are experiencing quite a few returns.

Thank you so much for linking to my videos! I hope you all enjoy them. What I did in these videos is convert my Cricut Expression into a Cricut Cake or as I call it in my videos a Cricut “Fake”, LOL. I think the actual Cricut Cake is really cool and probably very useful for some people, but I just didn’t need one so I converted my old Cricut Expression. I have to say, I’m having a ton of fun using it! Have a great day!
