Buttercream With Fondant Accents
Decorating By smoothcakes75 Updated 26 Nov 2010 , 12:46am by korensmommy
Just wondering if it's okay to do fondant accents on a cake covered in buttercream??
do it all the time. if the fondant wont stick you can either put a little water very very sparingly on the back or use shortening on the mat you roll out on that way the back of the fondant will be sticky.
Thanks - I feel better about giving it a try now!
Oh my goodness! Most of my cakes have become bc with mmf accents. As posted above, if your bc crusts, just use a small clean paint brush and some water, brush a small amount of water onto the back of the mmf and 'glue' it to the bc.
Good Luck! So much fun!

Absolutely! That is what I do for 99.99% of my cake orders!
I also put my buttercream w/fondant accents cakes in the refrigerator all the time with no problems - I know some people have trouble with this.
