I am preparing a 3 layer square wedding cake with buttercream icing but it has fondant drapes on alternating corners of each layer. Can someone give me instructions on how to make the drapes and how to attach them to the cake?

Thanks!

Country Kitchen has molds for drapes, etc. They seem pretty fool proof.

I have those molds and they work ok but you are limited as to the size you can make.
