Description
[EDIT]So I finally remade this tutorial. The main reason for that is the fact that the so-called layout was just horrible.
I've used different photos as well (because I didn't keep the old ones -.-)
But basically the content is still the same, I've just added a few things.
If you, however, prefer the old version: It can be found there [link]

If anyone detects a mistake or has a suggestion for a different wording in some cases, feel free to tell me.
I'm bad at explaining, especially in English xD

I do have a question^^
if you want to make a beads from it (to make a necklace or bracelet), when do you make a little hole so you can push thread throught it...
1. after cutting and baking?
or
2. before?^^
thx
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I personally would do it before baking.
I'm not sure, but it seems you normally cut the canes after baking?
Well I don't know what clay you use (I guess cutting Sculpey is easier than cutting Fimo, for example). But I suppose those beads are a little bigger than slices you use for nail art or miniature food.
You know, I'm just trying to say that in that case it might be easier to cut the canes before baking them anyway
In that case you could put the canes in the freezer for 10 minutes or so, that way they become a little harder and therefore easier to cut.
But anyway, when trying to make that hole after baking, the clay often becomes a little cracked (depends on the size of the hole) and it breaks easily.
So I suppose that both 'methods' are possible, but I'd go for the second one
Sorry, I'm still a little drowsy...So if the stuff I wrote is confusing or otherwise stupid, just ask again

ohh^^ i get it...
thank you...
i use fimo (soft) because I can' t find any other clay (like polymer, scullpey etc.) in my country :/ naah
^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Same as me. I've once tried Sculpey, though. I guess it really is a little too soft for me, so I'm still glad to have the chance to work with Fimo at least
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
hahaha
try working with fimo soft on 35°
I can' t make anything...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Uh I suppose so >_<
I'm not at home anyway, so I didn't try when it was that warm, but that's quite annoying...I hate it when Fimo becomes TOO soft...
Good luck, though xD

Also very beautiful tutorial. ^_~ Same technique I use for mine. *g*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you!
Yeah I think it's a nice technique since it's quite easy to do

I think this looks really professional! The close-ups and clean layout really work well. You have a knack for making these look so easy: good directions. I like the little thumbnails at the bottom that show the other fruit options, too- that's a good tie-in.

Thank you!
Yep and it's fun to make these tutorials, I'm thinking about another strawberry-cane one, since I developed a better method
But on the other hand I should perhaps try to finish a drawing first...

Haha nice!! It's officialy my fruits slice best tutorial!
And next time that i'm going to make some of them i'll know where to search. ^^
(But without that mush clay... i dont wanna make tons of them...) :S
YAY!! :icon+fav:
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Thank you so much!
You're right, I just used so much in order to show the whole thing properly, otherwise it's so..small xD
But yeah, especially if you want really small canes...it's absolutely sufficient to use a smaller amount of clay
And thanks a lot for the fav as well!

Great Tutorial! I think it is really helpfull (Would have loved to find this when I started at first XD)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Die Teile sind echt toll o.o Das Tutorial ist auch sehr verständlich ^^ Sieht aus wie Lutschbonbons, aber leider kann man das nicht essen xD *hungrig*
Ich kenne mich damit nicht so aus, aber ich denke, dass es ziemlich hilfreich ist, wie du es da darstellst o.o
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Danke schöön
Ich würd das auch gerne essen, ich krieg davon immer Hunger...aber schlimmer noch bei Torten T_T
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Vielleicht solltest du nebenbei auch backen, wenn du die Teile machst. Dann kannst du wenigstens etwas essen xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Uh das wär toll *__*
Aber dann würd ich wahrscheinlich total zunehmen xDD

Ach was, anschließend ne Runde joggen gehen und es gleicht sich aus! xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haste auch wieder recht xD
Hach ja...Ich muss echt mal wieder joggen gehen!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Das solltest du aber am Besten dann tun, wenns nicht regnet xD

Ja, echt sehr schlecht dein Englisch - schäääm dich! :'DD
Ich mag das neue Tutorial. Da bekomm ich gleich Lust, die Teile auszuprobieren, besonders Grapefuit, obwohl ich die Frucht gar nicht mag. Die Farben sind übrigends sehr schön geworden
Aber die Rolle sieht anfangs doch realtiv dick aus. Wie bekommst du so kleine Scheiben daraus hin - verrutscht das 'Muster' nicht etwas, wenn du die dann so dünn ausrollst? ôO
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Schon, bei sowas...
Jap mach mal, das ist eigentlich auch sehr einfach, man muss eben nur aufpassen, dass man die wirklich immer genau in der Mitte durchschneidet, sonst ist...nicht so klasse xD
Das geht eigentlich mit dem Ausrollen, genau genommen sollte man das anfangs auch noch nicht rollen, sondern eher vorsichtig von innen nach außen "draufdrücken".
Dann geht das eigentlich
Ich mag die Grapefruit-Dinger auch irgendwie (hab aber leider auch da viel zu viele gemacht ._.) aber ich liebe Grapefruit generell, von daher xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah, dann drück ich demnächst zuerst, bevor ich rolle
Vielleicht sieht das dann besser aus ;D
Aber die sind auch sehr schön, die Graphefruitteile. tust du die als Deko iwo hin, oder was machst du immer mit den Unmengen von diesen Scheiben? xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ja ich find eigentlich geht das immer ganz gut
Meistens packe ich die in eine Dose und warte, bis ich mal eine oder zwei für irgendwelche Kuchen/Cupcake-Dinger nehmen kann, aber manchmal verschenk ich die auch an Verwandte als Deko, wenn ich plötzlich gemerkt hab, dass ich denen was zum Geburtstag schenken sollte xDD

Aha. Notfalldosengeschenken also
