Bread Dough as Art
Stand:
Example (to make marguerites):
- Make a large cone with natural coloured dough.
Using scissors, make a longitudinal cut to the centre, making sub-divisions
of petals, about 16 of them. Flatten them out, and in the centre of each
petal make a slit with a needle. Stick a small ball of the paste coloured
yellow, raising small peaks with the point of a needle.
- Make the dough using white shoe cleaner.
Flatten a small ball, and introduce the wire. Dip the top part of the ball
in size, and stick a small seed of dwarf clover, leaving it to dry until the
following day. Divide the cone as previously, introducing the open,
flattened petals sideways to the wire, sticking them below the ball with the
seed.
- There are hardly any differences in the
leaves of the marguerite, so they can be made directly from green-coloured
dough, marking the veins with a wire or a needle . Stick the bound wire to
the little tail of the leaf, shape it and leave it to dry.
