ok so I made a chocolate fudge cake and filled and covered it with whipped ganache. But then I let it chill in the refridgerator to set (my kitchen is pretty warm after baking 4 hours today!) Now I'm ready to cover it in fondant but the fondant wont stick! How do you get it to stick?
mist it with a little water. If you don't have a spray bottle, just dab a little water on with your hands or brush some on with a pastry brush. Doesn't take much.
You can also use a simple syrup, but you don't even need to get that fancy. Water works fine.
no just use a little bit to give the fondant something to stick to. I've covered lots of ganache cakes with fondant and it's the only way I do it. Just a small amount to cover the surface is all you need. Just make sure you don't leave any dry spots or you could get air bubbles.
