Covering Cake Board With Fondant Question
Decorating By still_learning Updated 23 Aug 2009 , 2:14am by tracey1970
Do you normally cover the entire cake board and then put the cake on top or do you put the cake on the board first and then put a strip of fondant around the cake? I'm hoping to try this for the first time for the cake that's due tomorrow 
Thanks!
I always cover the whole board, but I've seen instructions in books where they just put the strip around the cake. I guess it can be done either way. I use MMF and it's cheap D: If I were using the more expensive stuff I'd be just putting the strip around the cake.
I always put it over the whole board because it's easier for me but I have seen a video on doing just the strip. I may attempt at some time but it seems harder to do for me.
i have done both. some people also.. after covering the board.. take the cake circle and lay it on board . cut around it. lift that peice off... then , put their cake down . that is on a cake board.into the circle.. that is a nice way to do it.also.. hth
I cover the whole board. I think I'd go crazy trying to get the strip around the cake to fit and look right. Kudos to anyone who can do it!
