i have been reading about doing a frozen buttercream transfer, and i have all of my things ready to go , then i think...wait, can you only transfer the frozen image onto a buttercream cake, or can you do it on top of a fondant cake as well?? please help!

I haven't done an FBCT but I use buttercream and royal on my fondant all the time.

maybe you could put a little bit of bc on the area the fbct will go. i've never tried it myself, if nothing else, do a really simple practice one just to see

the bc on the fondant where it is going to go might be a good idea.

I'm not going to be of any help but I'd be interested in knowing this too. I love doing fbct's but have only put them on b/c or whipped icing, never fondant. Hopefully someone with more experience will see this and can help.

I don't see any reason why this won't work. The bc will soften and stick to the fondant just like it will on another icing.. I say go for it.

I don't see why it wouldn't work. I use buttercream to add details to fondant cakes and havent had a problem with that. The fondant underneath might get soggy as the FBCT warms up?
