Awhile ago I made a cake using whipped cream frosting and fondant roses. The fondant and the frosting reacted and there was a weird yellow yuckiness. I was told it was because of the dairy in the frosting. I want to frost a cake in Italian buttercream, which has dairy, but still cover the cake in fondant. Is there any way to do this, or is there another frosting recipe I can use. I can't stand the taste or texture of fondant but the look is beautiful, so I want to have some frosting too.
If anyone has any suggestions or tips I would really appreciate it.
I use SMBC under fondant and have had no problems with it. As for the yellow color...was the fondant yellow??? I'm not sure what exactly your talking about and what recipe did you use? A dairy based BC shouldn't effect the fondant 
so not sure what exactly happened.
It looked like a yellow juicy sudstance was leaking out from the fondant. I heard in one place that it might not have been the dairy, but just that whipped cream frosting is too moist and just started melting to fondant. Thanks for advice, though.
I agree with Edna. Whipped cream breaks down. I only use it (stabilized)when the cake will be eaten within a few hours and I don't put it on the cake until right before it is served. I have stabilized it with piping gel and just a few days ago someone posted how to stabilize whipped cream with sour cream, which sounds very interesting. I personally do not like stabilizing with gelatin.
So, it would be okay to use the IMBC? Cause that's what I want to use.
Hi.
Does someone know buttercream frosting? I would like to make a cake with roses using a different frosting, since other frosting would not let me do the roses.
