I have a cake due in 2 hrs it is done! But, here is my problem. I made fondant #'s to go on the top of the cake (it is for a sweet 16) and my daughter just broke one, I am about to cry! I didn't make any extra and I know they don't have time to dry if I did make another on what do I do? Is there anyway that I can mend it back together? They have to be on the cake or it just wont look right!

*bump*

The only thing I can suggest is to try to make another one. If you can, mix some gumpaste in with your fondant, put them in a convection oven on low. That might dry it out sooner. Not sure if you can make a 2 hr deadline.

Other than that, try gluing them with water. Good luck.

remake both out of chocolate using fondant numerals as templates and mold the support skewers right in???

Do they have to be standing up?

or...apply chocolate coating to one side of numerals w/ long skewer embedded and going right across break line on the broken one.

allow to harden, then flip over and coat other side w/ chocolate too.

GOSH, Doug!

You NEVER cease to amaze me with your ideas and engineering expertise, dude!

You ROCK, Doug!
