I recently made a grad cap out of modeling chocolate(it's in my photos). The method I used would work for fondant, just take longer to dry. I rolled out a flat sheet and cut a square, let harden. I also covered half of an egg mold and let that harden. You can connect the two pieces with icing or if using fondant you can use a small amount of water as glue. Good luck!
how bout the tassel???? how do you make it look so stringy. they look awsome! THANKS!
If you don't have a clay gun to use with fondant use a number two tip with BC. If you use BC make sure you add some Karo Syrup so it has enough elasticity so you can pull it without breakage.

for the three grad caps in my photos, I covered a small bowl with saran wrap, then covered that with gumpaste/fondnat mixture. let it set up just enough so that it was still a little flexible (about a day) then worked it off of the bowl. Then just cut a square out of fondant and let that dry. Once both pieces dried completely, glued them together with royal icing.
