I saw a thread the other day about making fondant penguins, but I can't find it now. I discovered an easy way to make the wings and tail. You can use the large flower fondant cutter, then cut the flower in half. Wrap around the penguin's body and voila! I also used the small flower cutter for the feet, I know someone mentioned that but I can't remember who, sorry, it was a great tip. My penguins aren't half as cute as some I've seen on here, but I was pretty happy with them. icon_biggrin.gif

BklynSuze, I just checked out your gallery...(AWESOME cakes!!) and wondered if you can help me with a cupcake cake question...how do you keep the BC from 'sagging' in the gaps? I made one and after it sat overnight, I had noticeable dips.
TIA!
