I'm doing a two teired stacked cake with fondant for the first time....I'm trying to figure out how to determine how much fondant to use! Any suggestions would be great!! I'm going to cover one layer in Satin Ice and the other in MMF to practice working with both of them. I bought the small container of Satin Ice. I have to make a 10" round and a 6" round. Would one container be enough to cover both?? It doesn't say anywhere on the container!!

Thanks in advance!!

Check out earlenescakes.com.

She has a nice chart that shows how much fondant you need to work with, and how much actually ends up covering the cake.
