I am doing a groom's cake for a wedding next month and wanted to know what diamond impression mat or method would be best for buttercream. I know it is not normal to do something like that on a groom's cake but that is what they have requested to be done. I will be putting pearls at the intersections of the diamonds and wanted to make sure whatever method I used would work well with those.
thanks!
Thanks! So what you are saying is that a mat that states it is for fondant would be ok?
I have the mat from Earlene's and it is for fondant/buttercream. It will work. Just do not press down on the edge whne you are making your marks. Otherwise you will have a line across the last row of diamonds.
If the cake is chocolate use cocoa powder to dust it.
If the lines don't pres in enough use a straight edge dusted, to pres in further. I use the brown scraper from pampered chef.
the two quilt cakesin myphotos are using the impression mat. One is chcoclate buttercream the other is vanilla.
Good luck
Julia
