What's the difference between fondant and sugarpaste?
I apologize if this question has been brought up before.

Hi MsS, no don't worry there are no dumb questions to ask here

Sugarpaste or fondant are the same thing. For example Debbie Brown (she's from England) always calles it sugarpaste. Others call it fondant. You can have 2 types of fondant, rolled fondant for covering cakes or fluid fondant which you can poor over cupcakes (or maybe even large cakes but i don't know that for sure). Peggy Porschen uses for example the liquid one for her cupcakes and petit fours.

Good luck with your cakes!!

Thanks Lara. I suspected it was a English vs American terminology.

I'll be sure to post again if I have anymore 'dumb' questions! Haha!

I'm glad you asked because I wondered the same thing. Thanks for the clarification!

Hi--There is NEVER a dumb or stupid question!! All people learn that way!
