I have never made chiffon cake before, not sure I have ever had chiffon cake before?!
Anyway, I am making this recipe this weekend:
http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Orange-Chiffon-Cake-2/Detail.aspx
My question is, can you cover chiffon cake with fondant? Or is this one of those airy, fluffy type of cakes?
Thanks in advance!

Chiffon cakes tend to be very light and fluffy - I think fondant would squish it a bit!
It's an airy, fluffy cake. You may be able to get away with a stabilized whipped cream icing, but fondant might be too heavy. If you have any sugarveil*, that might work since it's very lightweight.
