Hey all! For my July 4th cake I want to do a tier in white fondant, then a layer of blue fondant over that and cut out stars to show the white underneath. How do i make sure the fondant layers stick together, but still be able to remove the blue where I want the white to show through?

I know it'd probably be easier to add white stars on top of blue fondant, but I thought this way would look so much better!

Thanks for any help!!

Hi mommakeef ,
You could use vodka - sugar syrup or just a spritz of wate to make sure your 2nd layer adhees to the first.
Personally i would use the Vodka - as it dries quicker, just a very light brushing will be enough

Just remember to allow enough time for your 2nd layer to dry - so as when you cut the stars out it leaves a clean cut mark - and not a saggy one.



It will look very effective - thumbs_up.gif
