... after it has dried or only on fondant? And can I put it on fondant after it has dried?

I haven't used an edible image before and need to for a cake due friday morning. If I put it on Wednesday will it still look good on Friday or should I wait until like Thursday afternoon?

Let your gumpaste piece dry completely on both sides, I brushed my piece with a paintbrush and a very light coating of clear corn syrup mixed with a tiny bit of water. The image seems to stick better for me that way.

Boween created a great tutorial (linked below) on how to make an edible image icing plaque by applying the edible image to a gumpaste/fondant mix. Maybe that would be helpful?
