if I can make a dark choc. cake and cover w/white MMF? Will the brown show through the white?

I've heard ppl say they add 2 Tbsp. of Hershey's Syrup to their choc. cake. Do I add less of my liquid (buttermilk is what I use, no water) to compensate or is it not enough to make a difference?

i think as long as u do a crumb coat and little layer of (white) icing underneath, white fondant should be fine. i did the top layer of my castle cake chocolate and put only a crumb coat over it b4 the fondant and it came out great

You will be fine because your crumb coat and thin layer of bc will cover the chocolate.

This has nothing to do with your question, but when I read your title I happened to be watching Sesame Street. (Well, my toddler is....not me of course icon_biggrin.gif) Anyway, I read "Can someone tell me"...and I, in my head, started singing "how to get, how to get to Sesame Street". icon_confused.gif It's been a looooonnnnngggg day, can you tell!
