I am trying to make a fondant bra cake today that will be picked up tomorrow at 3:00 and eaten on Saturday . Do I Have enough time to make the bra now and have it hardened enough to hold it's shape by tomorrow and will the buttercream cause it to collapse by Sat ?
Ugh I don't have time for this cake but it's for my boss's 50th so
I really need something nice that will turn out .
Help please .

Hi! I think it will be ok - if you can wait until the last minute to put it on the cake, leave it on the mold for as long as you can. When I did one, I let the circles sit on the outside of the mini Wonder mold pan so it would hold its shape, and it worked fine. Good luck, can't wait to see your pics!

Did you use gumpaste or fondant?
Ihave fondant already made but wonder if I could add gum tex ?

I actually only used MMF - but I have heard that you can add gum-tex and it will dry faster. I haven't tried that yet. I was worried that the MMF might not dry enough - but it held up great! It was still a little bit pliable, but it did not cave in at all. Hope that helps!

I would love to learn how to make the bra/panty out of fondant they are so pretty...could someone share how to do that??? Thanks!

Maemae - I didn't really have directions when I made mine, I just looked at pictures of some of the ones on here and winged it! I cut out 2 round circles of fondant, and then cut a "straight" piece off the top, for the top of the bra cup. Then I used a lace mold to get the lace effect on the top, but I have seen some that just had cornelli lace piped on them, and they were cute too. Then I placed them on the outside of the mini Wonder mold pan (covered the protusions on the pan with waxed paper first, to keep the fondant from sticking) and let them sit for a day or 2. Placed the molded cups on the cake, cut out the straps and laid them on the cake. I also used a little piece to connect the cups. Voila! That was it! (I didn't make the panty, but if I did, I probably would have just cut it out, used cornelli or lace mold accents, and let it harden on an up-side down pan as well). I can't wait to see yours. be sure to post some pics for us - Good luck!
