Gastronomia Furlan: Baguettes

For the baguettes, I used the same color mix as for all my white breads: Fimo vanilla, Fimo Soft sahara, Premo white, and translucent. After forming the shapes, I used a toothbrush, needle tool, and crumpled aluminum foil for texture and then shaded them with soft pastels for a golden-brown baked effect.

After baking, I applied some pale yellow and light brown pastels with a wet brush to the ridges of the split areas, the parts that would naturally be a little darker. Finally, I sealed the bread with Helmar Crystal Kote Matte spray varnish, so that the pastels wouldn’t rub off. Here’s a closeup of one of the baguettes.

Here are the baguettes added to the shelves.
