I have been asked to make a cupcake cake, but to use fondant as the cupcake liner. Is there anything special I need to do/know to get the fondant to stick to the sides of the cupcake cake only? Should I wrap it around a little to the top of the cake and then just cover it with icing?

On an episode of Amazing Wedding Cakes, Christopher Garren's made a large cupcake cake and to make the wrapper, they fan-folded a piece of cardboard, then laid the fondant out over it and let it dry long enough to hold the shape before wrapping it around the cake...it was pretty cool!
