A step by step tutorial on how to make Christmas (or any kind) of hard candy from polymer clay!

I almost didn't make this because I thought it was *too* simple...it's really very easy to do but it's a fun project to take on ;)

Can you use some glaze to get the candy to look more realistic? And if you do, what kind is the best?

I do use a varnish by a brand called J.W. etc that's worked fabulously for me and is my favorite :)

My best resources have always been the books written by Angie Scarr or if you look up 'polymer clay tutorial' here on dA or youtube :)

Thankyou!
I´ve tried doing many miniature food pieces with FIMO but it is very fragile.
How fragile is the Sculpey?

That's interesting because I found the Sculpey to be more fragile than the FIMO...another brand that is sturdy is Kato clay (the smell is a bit off putting though :P)
