Making sea shells

I can’t remember the last time I was at the beach.. when we were young, we used to go to Teluk Batik for a swim. Those were the days :) . Collecting sea shells was always part of the itinerary.

For today, I’m making some sea shells from fondant (sugarpaste). These seashells will go very well for any cake with a beach/ sailing/ underwater theme. Below are the step by step pictures.

Hope this tutorial will be useful for you. And do send me pictures of your seashell if you make one. Thanks.
