Cover the cake with the top color, i.e. white. Roll out the bottom color and cut one edge straight. Cut the other edge wavy or diagonally or however you want it. Wrap the bottom color around the cake.





I definitely would have done it this way,it's easier and neater,and if there is too much fondant they can peel it away.

I though Mensch's way will create an effect like this picture (sorry couldn't find the right pic before):

and it clearly shows that the pieces are not flushed. But now I understand it will create the flushed illusion because of that border. And if we can get the same effect by working much less, obviously that's the best way.
