When you put the fondant on over the frozen BC, do you find that the fondant starts to collect condensation as it starts to get cold? Is that a problem at all? Thanks so much! I'll give it a try!

I need to know how to make sharp, sharp edges on a square fondant cake. So sharp that it looks like a perfectly done square buttercream cake. How do you get that sharpness with fondant?

Missmersh,
No, I don't think you're dumb at all!  It's just one of those things that would be so easy to show you, but it's hard to explain!
So, most likely, it would make more sense if you' ... |

| Oh, and make sure you use frosting to hold the layer of cake onto the side. I just frost the side of the cake and then stick the layer on. |

Just a question here...
Can you substitute meringue powder for the egg whites in SMBC? It sure would make the whole process a lot faster! Has anyone ever done this?
Thanks!
