I was wondering if the billowing technique would work if I tried to attach the billowed pieces to buttercream instead of with piping gel on fondant? Since the outside won't be eaten anyway, I was thinking that this would cut down on the waste. My only concern is that the billows might get mushy. If it matters, I use smbc.
I was wondering the same thing. If no one else gives an answer, I guess the best thing to do is experiment!
From my experience,it cannot work unless on fondant.I tried it on buttercream and it was toooooo messy,I had to remove the little I had done, re iced the cake with buttercream, covered the cake in fondant and then started the billowing.Then and only then did it work.For me anyway.
