On the cake challenges I always see them putting fondant on in pieces. But how do they seam those? I can NEVER get my fondant to blend seams. Do they use royal icing to caulk or does their fondant just seam?

I got a large 3D cake order from a corporation which will require me to put fondant on in pieces. What will be the best way to hide the seams? My fondant needs to be as flawless as possible.

I'm not sure how it'll work on large pieces of fondant, but I've hidden cracks and small seams with fondant mixed with water - the consistency you would use to glue fondant pieces together. I put it in the seam and worked it in with a ball tool and smoothed. I'll bet royal would work also.

I hope someone cn answer this for you because I'm curious about it as well.

I also would like to know this answer. I read on here some where you can put crisco on your fingers and rubbed over the seams. I have tried that but it does not completely merge them together.

I've heard some people say that they use royal icing tinted the same color as the fondant. I have never tried it though so can't vouch for it.

Great question!

I have a very basic question about 3-D cake making:

I have been reading about "Wonder Pans"

What is it and where do I find them/

thanks

I saw Duff repair a crack with RI, but frankly I wasn't impressed. Still looked like a crack to me.

I think wonder pans are those pans you get from Wilton that are like a woman with a big dress or the bear that is standing up (not flat) and I think they have a house also.

Is there any way you can hide seams with decorations or between different colours? I like you cannot blend seams to make them invisible. If the seems are going to be out in the open as it were I think you'd be able to see them, unless you get really good at spackeling with RI.
