i've only used fondant a couple of time, for figures. My question is - what shape cake is easier to cover with fondant - round or square? I'm making a dummy cake for a silent auction and want to make a really nice demo cake? any tips would be appreciated!
someone with more experience than me will reply.....but i'll tell you what i think they will say.....i think it will be a round cake......i've only used it a few times.....and there are many who are very experienced using it...when they see this thread they'll get back to you

i made mmf - i have square styrofoam but can cut it round or hexagon - i just don't want to make it too difficult for my first try...
It's really easy.. Just make sure you put the dummy cake on a higher surface so that the mmf can hang down.. You will then need to smooth the sides like you were smoothing a skirt. meaning: w/one hand you will be pulling out the bottom of the mmf while smoothing w/the other hand from behind. all shapes will be the same to cover.
I hope this helps.
