What is the best way to fill dings in styrofoam for fondant coverings? I ordered a new dummy for an upcoming class and it arrived with a noticeable ridge in it around the top from where they rounded the edge for me icon_cry.gif - no time to reorder, and it is too deep to just sand out. Royal or fondant spackle made with gumpaste glue or ??? Thanks for any suggestions.

I would use royal icing to "spackle" it.

I use royal icing to spackle, then sand it. I also sand the top edges to take the sharp edge off, and sand any ridges etc. The dummies I buy all come with sharp edges, and little dings.
