My sister in law and I did a wedding cake a few years ago we used the wilton rolled fondant but we kept them in big tupperware boxes with air tight lids until the big day, we had to transport them to wendover, NV. Not sure if this will help or not.

I once read, on another forum, that the buttercream underneath helps keep the fondant moist.

Still yet, another forum had a post that said you can knead in some more glycerine to help keep it soft. Has anyone out there tried this, and what was the result?
