doing my first dummy cake tonight. i have the styrofoam wrapped in press and seal... just put fondant over it? i don't want to use buttercream as i need to keep this for a year or two for a display. can i avoid icing with royal? will the fondant adhere to the wrap????

If you wet the wrap with water first, your fondant should stick just fine. =)
great, misting with a spray bottle of water it is! i actually contoured my edges with a sand paper block my hubby had in the garage... already looks like cake! lOL

I've used piping gel or corn syrup on my dummies to get the fondant to stick.

On mine recently, I tried the wrap, and it didn't go so well, so I just misted the dummy itself with water and stuck the fondant right to that. Seems to be holding up fine.
