Question About Buttercream Under Fondant...
Decorating By kelketchum Updated 25 Jan 2007 , 3:34pm by ladyonzlake
I hate the way fondant tastes but I love the way it looks. If I make the buttercream under the fondant thicker as in if I wasnt going to cover the cake in fondant then would it taste better? Or should I just try to do rolled buttercream? If I did the rolled buttercream do it work the way the fondant does with the cut outs?
What type of fondant are u using? Wiltons taste discusting....like chemicals....I HATE it and will never touch it agian! However, MMF that I make myself is Wonderful!!!!!!! All it is, is marshmallows, powdersugar and water. So when you eat it, it just tastes like marshmallows on top of a cake. Yum! Ive heard that satin ice is good too if you want to buy the fondant. Ive never used rolled buttercream.
You can frost with buttercream as you normally would and then cover with fondant. Try using Pettinice or Satinice for a better tasting fondant. I have made the MMF and I think it's a pain to make and would rather buy it so I can get to the decorating part. I do use Wilton for decorative fondant pieces...flowers ect. but it doesn't tast good at all.
