Okay so I was going through Earlene's instructions on making fondant pearls and I don't have a flat "sponge" to put the pearls on - so I tried a papertowel, but they stuck to the papertowel! So I just let them sit on a plate....now they have little flat "bottoms". Do you all just usually put that side on the cake, or do you actually have fully round pearls??
they need to be cushioned...I use a piece of foam so they are cradled.
If you put them on a flat surface they will dry flat.
You can try putting the flat side against the cake.
I have some "bumpy foam" that I cut from a new foam egg crate matress pad. I put one pearl in each divot if I'm only making a few. If I'm making a ton, I put them separated on the flat side of the foam. The air flow through it helps to dry them quickly.
