It is advisable to use liquid gel dyes in MK; they mix perfectly with mastic and do not leave streaks on the surface after the figurine has dried.

We create a figurine from the cartoon “Paw Patrol”

By and large, sculpting figures from mastic is almost similar to sculpting from plasticine or polymer clay. Therefore, if you have such an opportunity, practice making the Racer from the cartoon “Paw Patrol” in advance. Our master class will help you master the basics of this process:

After the Racer is ready according to the master class, you can begin the final design of the cake.

Mastic cake “Paw Patrol”: tools and materials

This master class is dedicated to creating a Racer figurine. The rest of the puppies can be made using the same principle, only the color of the mastic and some details change slightly. To do children's cake"Paw Patrol", you should use:

• rolling pin;
• rug;
• stack with a ball at the end;
• scalpel;
• with a knife;
• toothpick;
• confectionery gel;
• water to wet your fingers;
• powdered sugar.

Main material

Mastic is the main material from which each PAW Patrol figure is made. It is best to use mastic made from milk powder or powdered sugar. This material does not dry very quickly, unlike mastic made from gelatin, it takes the desired shape well and follows all the curves almost perfectly. From such mastic, experienced confectioners advise creating three-dimensional figures"Paw Patrol"

During the work process, the material will need to be painted in different colors. To sculpt the Racer figurine, you will need mastic in blue, yellow, brown, white and black shades. Accordingly, the figures of the remaining characters are created from material of other shades.

Liquid dyes should be used; they can be easily mixed with mastic. After the figurine dries, there are no streaks left on its surface.

How to make a cake from fondant “Paw Patrol”: sculpting the Racer’s head

Modeling mastic figures is similar to a similar process using polymer clay or plasticine. Therefore, if possible, you should practice sculpting a cartoon character in advance.

First you need to roll a ball of black mastic - this will be the puppy’s head. From a smaller ball, molded from yellow mass, you should make a triangle and glue it in front, like a beak. Two yellow circles are attached to the top - eyes. Next, the dog’s mouth is formed: a piece of mastic is attached to the bottom of the triangle. A small black ball is placed in the center - this will be the nose. Two round eyes are created from white unpainted mastic, pressed with a stack, and two black dots are applied in the center using gel dye.

Sculpting the puppy's body

The next step in creating a cake from PAW Patrol fondant is making the body of the figurine.

An oval is rolled out of blue mastic, then a small circle is made from brown. Both pieces are placed next to each other and rolled out with your hands on the table so that the pieces stick together along the seam - this is how you get the puppy’s body. Next, you should roll a small sausage from dark brown mastic, attach a yellow ball to it on top and also roll it out on the table, connecting both parts. It is necessary to create four such blanks, from which the front and hind legs of the “rescuer” are obtained. Toothpicks are inserted into the top center to attach them to the body.

We connect the parts and decorate the figure

Using toothpicks, the paws are attached to the body. A ball of black mastic is rolled out, pressed down with a round stack, the lower part is smeared with gel and glued at the top and front to the dog’s body. A toothpick is inserted into the center of this ball and the head is attached to it. The joint is pre-lubricated with gel.

A strip of white mastic is glued to the puppy's chest and secured with a stick. Using a stack, cut out a pentagon-icon and glue it onto the chest of the figure, and attach a circle of blue mastic on top of it. A badge is attached to the side, a star-shaped medal is attached to the chest, eyebrows are attached above the eyes. From a ball of blue mass you need to form a cap, attach a yellow strip above the visor. Ears are made separately and attached to the side of the head. A tail is created from black mastic and attached to the back of the body. At the final stage, a backpack is created and attached to the puppy’s back. It is created from black mastic and decorated with company symbols.

In the process of creating a character figurine, it is necessary to monitor the proportions of the hero - the Racer's head should be large, like in a cartoon, the tail should be thick and short, and the ears should be long.

Decorating the cake

After the Racer figurine is ready, you can start decorating the dessert. If you wish, you can sculpt figurines of all the main cartoon characters, but many housewives believe that even one of them can be a wonderful cake decoration. The little birthday boy will especially enjoy the dessert, from the surface of which a mastic character, who is his favorite, will look at him.

Stages

We use a round and tall cake, made according to a recipe chosen by the hostess in accordance with her taste. Its surface should be spacious enough so that all the created decor can fit on it. The top of the cake should be covered with dark green mastic, imitating a lawn. The coating should not be smooth, it is necessary to achieve a velvety effect.

To do this, coarse green confectionery powder is applied over the covering. The top of the cake is covered with cream tinted with green dye. Decorations in the form of various flowers are placed along the edges of the clearing. They can be bought ready-made in a specialized store.

Flowers are individually attached to the surface of the cake using confectionery gel. Lubricated only reverse side flower in the center. The flower should be firmly glued to the surface of the cake and pressed down slightly with your hands. You can “sit” on ladybugs and other decorations at your discretion.

Cartoon character figures are also attached to the gel. They lubricate the soles of the paws. If the figures are significantly massive, they are attached to the surface of the cake using toothpicks or wooden skewers, which should be carefully inserted into the center of each paw.

The “Paw Patrol” fondant cake is ready. It cannot be called the simplest confectionery product, but the efforts of the home confectioner will definitely pay off with interest, because the joyful sparkle in the eyes of the little birthday boy will be grateful to him.
