This was my first time using the WASC recipe (awesome!!!) and the rolled buttercream fondant. I had a hard time with the pink fondant tearing so I tossed it and just started with the stripes. I didn't bother smoothing the buttercream as much b/c it was going to have fondant over it. The folks at the office were happy with it (they would have been happy even if it was just a big pile of cake!) I can't wait to try again.
