HOW TO MAKE THE PLASTER OF PARIS MOULD PIECES.

1. Empty the plaster bag into a plastic bowl and add around 160ml of water to it.

2. Mix it well to form a uniform paste.

3. Pour the mixture into the 6 cavities of the moulds and gently shake the mixture inside the mould to get rid of any air bubbles.

4. Let it set in the moulds.

5. Once the plaster has fully hardened, gently remove the hardened Plaster of Paris castings from the moulds. For best results leave it overnight before taking the castings out from the mould.

6. The 6 moulds correspond to 6 yummy bites – Doughnuts, Pastries, Cookies, Chocolates, Pies and Biscuits (all assorted shapes)

7. Using the blunt knife scrape away the excess plaster of Paris from the sides of the moulds so that the surface is level. Do the same treatment to the bottom surface of the moulds.

8. Now you have an assortment of 6 assorted ready to be painted tasty bites.
