Couple Questions About Cake Dummies
Decorating By mommyandmecakes Updated 21 Jul 2009 , 5:10pm by JanH
Since I like tiered cakes yet always have way too much cake left over I thought I would try one tier as a cake dummy. ( scaling back to the correct servings would take all the creativity and fun out of it!) so a couple random questions:
1. Should I cover before icing with BC - would seal and stick Saran wrap work or would icing slide off and not be smooth?
2. Does it matter why tier is the dummy? I want to a petal pan, topped with a circle then a baby belly cake on top- can I do the center round as the dummy?
Thank you soooo much - I really love this CC community. [/url]
I just finished doing a wedding cake where I used cake dummies. I rubbed a little crisco on the dummy before putting the fondant on. No problems at all doing it this way. I would think you could use the dummy any where in the cake, but I have never tried it. Maybe someone else can jump in and answer that one.
Apologize for the multiple posting - not sure what happened. Otherwise do the same rules apply for applying BC vs fondant? Also, what about my other questions? Help me please!!!!
