I'm wondering, what is everyone's preferred method for attaching fondant accents to fondant or buttercream cakes?

I usually just use water and a small brush.

For attaching Fondant to fondant I mostly use vodka to attach the pieces, and then on on BC cake, I used bc to attach.

brush on a little water with a small paintbrush.

I've had good luck with putting fondant piece on a dampened paper towel for a few seconds then onto the buttercream.

I usually just rub water on with my finger, easier than a brush JMO

I usually use water on a cake only paint brush for attaching to fondant and a small amount of BC when attaching to BC.

If attaching fondant items to b'cream - Pipe an open circle of icing - if a lg piece use several adn push onto cake. The circle formas a suction to help hold the piece to the cake.

Water is o.k. for attaching to fondant.

wow, kakeladi that's a great tip! Thanks you!

Piping gel and a paint brush. Goes on sticky and dries pretty fast!

I use water and a very small amount of Tylose powder. After it disolves it becomes the consistency of glue. It works great for fondant on fondant.

I like to lick them and stick them on.

Ok, kidding!!! lol

I usually use water or buttercream or even royal icing if I'm using it on the cake anyway.

water does it for me. sometimes buttercream

I was taught in a class to take pea size peice of fondant and put it in a couple of ounces of water (a baby food jar or some small container like that with a tight fitting lid) put the fondant in it let disolve and it acts like glue, it is not thick like glue.

I use water if the fondant is still soft - for dried pieces, I use R.I or edible glue ( cmc/tylose mixed with water )

msullie10 and frankyola are doing what I was just taught in a class...tylose and water. It's the most secure way.

I love water.
