OK.. so I did a forum post and asked what everyone covered their boards in, got mostly contact paper and freezer paper. I have used the contact paper and it is a pain in the reenie to use, especially on larger boards. I just attempted the freezer paper idea.... and I just don't know... did I buy the wrong thin?
What I bought is called Glad press and seal-freezer, is that the right stuff?
Then when I open it it is tinted a pale blue which makes my board look light blue... for tomorrow's cake, I am not worried about it because it is a boys cake.. but did I just buy the wrong thing or what? It doesn't seem to stick very well either!
Freezer paper is like a thick parchment paper that is flat on one side and glossy on the other. The glossier side is like a protectant so the grease/butter won't soak into the paper. The Press-n-seal is more like a seran wrap.
I also use Wilton's fanci foil.
