Draping Help Needed - Wedding Shower Dress Cake
Decorating By bellyjeans Updated 18 Jul 2008 , 5:52am by gateaux
I've seen so many pictures in the gallery of a wedding shower dress cake that's usually rectangular... how would I do the draping on it?
I hope that made sense!
It can be easly cut afterward with scissors, or given a handerchief or scallop edge before placing on cake. Make a small "test" dress to determine the shape.
I actually did mine in individual sections because smaller pieces of fondant are easier to handle. I just tucked the edge under to give it the pleated effect. I cut the bottom after it was on the cake.
I suggest using the back of the pan you will use or used for the cake that way you will get the almost perfect fit.
Also to do the pleats I use Chop-sticks to help get them even and it's easy to lift.
Hope this makes sense.
Good Luck.
