I have not done too many of these transfers so I was wondering if anyone had tried to put one on a fondant covered cake.

I am doing a graduation cake and she wants TinkerBell. She also wants the cake covered in fondant. I don't think that I can draw her or make her out of fondant so I thought about the bc transfer.

Please somebody help it is for this Sat.

Thanks So Much,

Well it probably could be done, but then that is taking away the look of the fondant which she is paying for. To keep with the "look of smooth and flat" I would do a chocolate transfer instead. they are EASY and would probably look better.

In my photos I have FBCT pictures and then the Blues Clues is a chocolate transfer - you can see how that is "flatter" sheen more in line with fondant.

Just my 2 cents, but I think your customer would be miffed to have to cut through buttercream to get to the fondant which she'll probably peel off anyway.

What if you used a picture of tinkerbelle and use it like a template to cut it out of fondant and kind of placed it on the cake .

You know kinda like cutting out a paper doll and her clothes.

I can see this in my head,but know that I am not wording it right. icon_razz.gif
