I haven't done much with fondant and I'm doing a cake this weekend and I want to do some funky fondant flowers as accents on a bc covered cake. Do I make them ahead and let them dry or do them and put them on while they are soft?

I put them on right after cutting them out. They stick right on to IM buttercream, or I use just a little bit of warm water to stick them on to fondant cakes.

I've done it both ways...especially if it's got curves and such that you want to "mold into shape" and need to let it dry - like bows.

Thanks! I made the flowers last night and then thought that maybe I shouldn't have. But I guess they will work for this even if they are dry. Guess that's how we learn!!
