Step 10a:
Step 9d:
Roll very thin black
sausage shapes for the
eye lash line. Fix in place
with a damp paint brush. Roll thin brown sausage
shapes for brows. Fix to
face and finish face with
rose pink petal dust on
the cheeks and lips. You
can also uses tiny dots
of edible white paint to
highlight the eyes. Roll small balls of flesh
tone fondant for the
ears. Use the leaf tool to
flatten interiors and fix to
indentations you make
with the leaf tool to the
sides of the head. Use a
damp paintbrush to glue
them in place. Dampen the top of the
neck and fix the head into
place.
Step 11a: Step 11b: Step 11c: Step 12a:
Roll out some white
fondant and cut into
shape pictured. The
length of the widest side
should measure long
enough to drape over the
head and tuck in at the
nape of the neck allowing
for some droop of the
hood. The depth of the
piece should allow for the
meeting and joining of the
two ends behind the head
with some excess that you
will cut off. To fix the hood in place
dampen the top and back
of the head as well as the
nape of the neck (sides
and front of the neck
also). Pull the hood together at
the back. Use scissors to
cut excess fondant away
from the join and tuck the
hood in at the back of the
neck. Roll a small line of fondant
thicker in the middle than
the ends. Gently fold in
half and twist to make a
unicorn horn. Remember
to make the end pointy!
