So I am making a couple 3 tier dummies for an event saturday... i covered my cakes in spackle which didnt look too great so i fondanted them... anyways alll the fondant melted
So what do i cover a dummy in that wont make my fondant melt??? I know i put tooo much spackle on (its not bc!) but i need to fill in some cracks/dimples & need it to dry asap..... Please help!! Im on the verge of tears right now... im going to stand and talk to 1000 people saturday my biggest event yet....
Thanks Toni
u can fill any cracks with ri or bc - it doesnt need to be dry (i dont think!) before you can use fondant.

you can yes, but getting royal icing truly smooth is a talent that takes time, at least on real cake, i imagine on dummies too.
if you dont want to use fondant, and are experienced in buttercream, you can just do buttercream.

I cover dummies all the time. Sand the edges lightly, fill any large depressions with royal or buttercream. Let dry a few minutes. Spritz with a bit of water and then cover with fondant. Don't touch the covered dummies for a few hours so that a crust forms. If you get too excited and try to stack the cake too soon you will get a lot of finger dimples. The fondant will look better once it has dried.
