Fondant over BC. I made this for my daughter's baby shower (my first grand-baby). Covering the sides of a cake with fondant was a new experience and lots of fun. I had a little trouble with positioning the letters at 2 a.m. I learned that allowing them to dry a little before placing (and catching a little sleep) would have been easier. Lessons learned are always worthwhile! Anyhow, my daughter and guests loved the cake and didn't seem to notice.
