Vertical Embossed Lines In Fondant
Decorating By mrsgreshcakes Updated 14 Oct 2014 , 10:42am by Magic Mouthfuls
Hi all,
I'm stumped! How do I achieve the look that's on the top tier? This is not my cake (obviously) but a picture sent from a client.
Thank you!

AI'd go with what kakeladi said. Fondant rolls... Dayti's idea with the ruler is surely easier / faster, but you would loose the round curves. Just an idea...why don't you pipe the rolls on? Need good piping skills, but that would combine both in one, fast and round.
I'm sure you can find some kind of item at the craft store to use as a type of impression mat in order to give you that effect without all that work.
You could buy a "ribbed smocking rolling pin" - there's a few different ones on the market. You might find it just as easy to indent with a ruler and gently wiggle back & forth to round out the edge a bit. I did this once to imitate wool on a ball of wool cake - it was sufficient, but I like the rolling pin tool better.
