Decorating By sweety81 Updated 7 May 2006 , 3:34pm by Rodneyck
Hello, I´m searching some receipes for cakes and fillings. The important thing is, it must taste very good and it must be for a fondant cake. If I make my german buttercream I have to put it in a refrigerator. And fondant may not stay that coll right?
So what are your favorites? Does anybody can give me receipes?
We´ve got no cool cellar or rooms because we´ve got no air condition ![]()

What kind of flavours are you looking for, as a scratch baker of 20+ years, I'm sure I can give you some great recipes that work well for fondant, and with European measurings too! Just let me know and I'll see what I can come up with for you ![]()

I'm in the UK and I just use a victoria sponge cake. I fill with raspberry jam and vanilla buttercream (recipe below). I then coat with a thin layer of buttercream before covering in fondant. You don't need to refrigerate. There is enough sugar in the buttercream to act as a preservative and the fondant acts a sealant preventing the cake or the filling from going stale or turning.
4oz butter
8 oz icing sugar
few drops of vanilla essence.
Beat well together until light and fluffy. If too thick you can thin with a little milk
I have an idea section I constantly add to when it comes to creating a cake. The best way is to do an internet search on cake decorators and see what flavors and combinations they are offering. Here are a few that might inspire....
I created this one... I call it the Sophisticated Twinkie:
Vanilla sponge cake with lemon zest, brushed with rum syrup, filled with twinkie filling and vanilla buttercream
Chocolate-almond cake, chocolate ganache, and mocha buttercream
Lemon cake, lemon curd, and vanilla buttercream
Chocolate devils food cake, vanilla buttercream, and raspberries
Moist, refreshing lemon-coconut cake filled with layers of a light tropical mango cream
