I'm doing a wedding cake for Halloween and the bride requested different shaped tiers but didn't really specify what shapes. I was thinking hexagon square circle, but my question is how hard is it to cover that bottom shape? Ive done squares and circles before and I have this nagging voice in my head that says "somewhere you heard that was hard" lol

any thoughts?

Hi, I haven't covered a Hexagon before. But I have seen Shugarshack doing it on her dvd. And it doesn't look hard. I think a petal shaped cake is more difficult to cover than a hexagon.

I think the hex is even easier than the square. I love octogon and hexagons.

I think hexagons are easy. I have done 3 tiers all hexagons and the fondant goes on very nicely. Easier than squares!

awesome to hear! Thanks all i'm not so intimidated by them now. Now to practise evading seams and im all set
