Hello. I just purchased a fondant elephant cake topper on Ebay. It's scheduled to ship out this week so I'm wondering how I should store it until the baby shower? The baby shower is October 17th, so what's the best way to store it until then so it stays it's shape and what not? The seller told me to store it in an air tight container with a paper towel on the bottom. I'm a little nervous in doing that though, as i've seen on here it's not the best way. Please help!! I don't want it to be ruined by the time the shower is here.

It will be fine that way.  Just try to keep it in a cool dry place as fondant and humidity aren't good friends.  I've had fondant toppers under a glass cake dome for about a year and they are still perfect.
