Hi! I'm new to this site, but have heard wonderful things about how helpful you all are and I'm hoping you'll help me. I'm making a cake covered in fondant and want to attach accessories. I was thinking of using marzipan for the accessories since it shapes so well, but don't know if it will stick to the fondant. Does anyone KNow if this is a good idea? It's for a family occasion and I really appreciate any ideas/suggestions you may have. icon_confused.gif

I'm sure it would be fine........but as long as you're covering the cake in fondant, why not mold the accesorries out of fondant as well???

I haven't tried marzipan yet, but I know everyone I've had try fondant doesn't like it. Maybe you could cover the cake with marzipan , instead of fondant. Just a thought. Good luck with whichever you choose.

Hiya

Yes you can cover a cake in fondant and use marizpann figures....but if no one likes fondant why not do the whole thing in marizpann...

Good luck
