Does the gel harden or it stays wet? wanna use it on cake pops.

It eventually hardens....If using on cake pops to decorate, use just enough to place and hold the product...if you use to much it will slide

It is VERY sticky and wet, but does dry eventually. it does take a little while to dry.

Mine is not refrigerated and is the consistency of water. Since I use 3-4 drops at a time, having a gel consistency isn't an issue.

It doesn't really harden. It's basically like a liquid chalk substance. It's closer to paint in texture than something that hardens. It does dry extremely fast. I'd say within minutes you could touch it and it would not rub onto your hand (in the summer anyway). I used it on grass.

I made the cake the day before and it was fine. If plastic wrap touches it the faces come off. It's only good for a couple days. I ordered mine about month before I used it. Just keep in the plastic on a cool place

The only thing I've every really used was in a squeeze tube and was purchased at the local Ace Hardware. It's a clear gel that drys to the touch in 10 minutes or so but takes 12 to 24 hours to cure. That cure time is unfortunate but I will say it is tenacious after that and no further repair to that spot will ever be needed again. If you happen upon something faster let me know! Thanks.

In my experience I have not had the cream dry out. If you keep the lid on it I think it would keep for a very long time.

Mine was smooth but when I took the lid off it cracked and chunks of hard plastic went everywhere. I just bagged it to keep it from getting dry. I make creams and as I used my last batch it got clumpy and crumbly but performed just as well.

No. When it dries, it is a solid and is not water soluble. It can get wet but it will not revert back to a liquid state. I have used it on ribbon and it had gotten wet, but it did not harm the glue. Hope this helps.

I just squeeze the tube a bit and lick it off the top, then roll it around in my mouth with my tongue til it coats everywhere. Worked much betterwith the original formula as it was thicker. It's a clear gel. After getting it around in your mouth then the mouth is moist again. I often wake up in pain from the dryness and if I didn't have it I'd never get back to sleep. Thanks for asking. Someplace i found a gel with a mint flavor but I can't use mint so I don't remember what the name of it was.

I would recommend the cookie sheet under it for stability (so as not to spill or crack your cakes). I cannot answer the question about burning/sticking as I use mine for a soap mold but I can tell you that American cakes that are moist tend to stick pretty bad in silicone molds. German cakes that are heavier and denser work GREAT in these molds without sticking and hold their form REALLY well. The more moist the cake is the more likely it will stick.

You can probably still put it on "wet". But try putting in the fridge for a few minutes or on ice to cool it down. It will "harden" up.

I've made it a week ahead and wrapped it tight with plastic wrap and it was fine and went on the cake beautifully.I love working with it and the great cakes I've done for family and friends.hope this helps.

Bob,We ended up having to replace our popper a couple months ago. I think I got water in it one to many times wiping it down with a fairly soaked sponge. I must say we used this several times a week on average. It is still a good product. I just need to be more careful about washing it. Hope this helps.

I think that regular polish just air dries, right? It's the gel polish that cures or hardens by use of the LED light. But I don't think that the light has the same impact on normal polish. I hope that makes sense. Maybe you can find something out by internet search on the subject; don't take my word for it.

I am not sure. I know that when we have used it we had a party so it dissapeared by the next day so it was still fresh. Or we had it on a separate plate and put the plate that it was on in the fridge and just used a plastic cake cover to cover it. That is what we do. Hope that helps. Sorry for the delay in our answer.

This type lasts longer than those made out of balloon latex but it also depends on how much it's played with. Actually, I've never had one of this type pop but rather leak around where it is glued together. You should get a good deal of fun with it before it leaks. I've had some last a couple of years but some only six months.

It will dry out over a few weeks, but it isn't solid, it crumbles. You need to bake it for the polymer to activate.
