I would like information on using poured fondant for a cake. I am making a 8" layer cake and would like to know if I could use poured fondant on this size of cake. I have seen information in regards to petit fours, cupcakes and cake pops but not much about an actual cake. Thanks in advance.
I'm new to this page what is PITA (pain in the rear?-just thought of that as I was typing the question)
I am just making a Frozen cake for fun and wondered how it would look. I have used fondant in the past but not enough to be an expert with it. I'm a huge fan of the Rosette cakes right now, not only are they beautiful but so easy!
I am pulling out the stops so to speak with this little project. Introducing myself to Royal Icing. Might try the candy glass too.
I've never done Petit Fours.
I don't have a bakery or bake cakes to sell. I just enjoy doing it so I bake them for friends and family etc.
This is heavenly desert. Personally, I think they are good just using little square cakes, not the layered ones. It's a huge pita, especially if it's important that they look perfect. If taste is more of the concern, your friends will love you for it. Hardly anyone makes them any more. I like them with almond flavoring, but there are so many options. Please send me a box of them when you're done! lol
I'm not making Petit Fours. I was asking about using the poured fondant on a full sized cake.
As it is a type of glaze rather than a frosting, Poured Fondant is rarely used as a large cake covering.
As with Petit Fours and other smaller bakery items, you will have to do multiple coats to get the coverage on a larger cake . It is also liable to crack when it is moved around..
That's what I was thinking! Thanks for the post.
