I was asked to make a celebration of life cake for a friend's mother who recently passed away. She loved carnations, blue. I sculpted the cae into a clay pot and lightly iced with BC. Covered it with terra cotta color fondant after I had froze the cake. The fondant immediately started to sweat. I completed the cake with oreo and fudge topping as the dirt. I constructed carnations, blue-tinged, out of fondant and attached them with leaves into the pot. I could not figure out how to get that fondant from not sweating. Well, I added a fan, not too close, and sure enough it is starting to set. Whew! I thought this would have been the end. I now know to only stick the cake in the freezer for 5-10 minutes before sculpting and then leave it at room temperature before covering in fondant.
