You have to put a thin layer of buttercream frosting over the cake. This acts as a glue for the fondant to stick to. i usually use about 1/8" to 1/4" all over the cake. Be very careful not to put too much buttercream or to smooth your fondant too much becuase the buttercream will squish out the bottom.
