I use my exact knife to do the final trimming around the bottom of my cakes.

hi all, wonderful tips here!!

i have a question ? - how do i get a neat, clean and undistorted finish on fondant pieces. i look at some cakes and the finish is perfect, while others are pretty but slightly imperfect, eg : eyes on a cartoon character uneven

(see example below - eyes are uneven even though same cutters were used and the edges are a bit wobbly)

 

a bit embarrassed about this cake - felt it was quite untidy. inspired by a Debbie Brown design. still have lots to learn about sculpting, molding and decorating with fondant. my seven year old and his friends did love it though..

 

ta so much
