Hi
I read your fondant recipe and although it seems easy I wasn’t sure whether to give it a try.
After seeing this great result I’m sure going to give your fondant recipe a try.

Thanks

This cake is gorgeous!! Gives me great hope that I too, can make a beautiful cake. I’m just trying out fondant for the first time and very nervous about it. However, that’s what people want these days, so I’m going to give it a try:) You did a great job!

I’m curious… I’m going to give this a try, but I’m not sure how to make it look as though there would be no seem when I put the fondant ON the cake. Are there special instructions as to what to do, there? I mean, I can see a slight seem on this one, but on others they look absolutely seemless (I’m thinking that comes w/practice?). Do you just rub it down? Will that take the seem out? Will I get the same result if I used, say, a wet q-tip? PLEASE HELP!

I’m going to use your recipe for fondant; the cake that I’m making calls for a marzipan layer before covering with fondant. Is this necessary?

My mom use to be a cake decorating professional, although she has never worked with fondant.
I’m very interested in trying this recipie, but I have a question about the glycerin.
Where would I buy it? Can I find it in any grocery store? Do I need to go to a specialty shop
to find some, or do I need to buy it online?

Just love your site. I am a novice but I soooo inspired by your recipes and pictures of the cakes. Can I use the fondant on the banana cake recipe you have provided? Can I store the cake in an airtight container or does it have to be in the fridge? I might bake the cake a day or 2 before I try the icing. Thank you very much for your help.

Simply gorgeous! I can’t imagine how this cake was cut, with all those frilly bows on top (which I love!). It was kind of Sarah to share these photos.
