Roll the gumpaste to desired thickness, which depends on the size of your cake (For this recipe, the gumpaste was rolled to 1/8-inch thick in proportion with the 2-inch mini cakes). Cut into 1-centimeter-wide strips with a ruler as your guide.

Dip one end of a toothpick in egg white then brush the ends of one side of a gumpaste strip egg as well.

Place toothpick in between the ends of a strip.Allow to harden, approximately for two days, at room temperature. Want to make florettes? Slice gumpaste into 1-inch-thick strips. Brush one end with egg white. Roll to form a flower, pinching the bottom as you go. Glue the end to the flower by brushing it with egg white. Allow to harden, approximately for two days, at room temperature.
