I made this cute Hello Kitty fondant cake for my sweet niece birthday. Today, she is going to celebrate her 3 years old birthday with her classmate in the Childcare Centre. Hope she will love it. :)
I'm thinking of making a fondant cake for my boy's 1st birthday after reading your post :) very inspiring indeed!
Can you share with me some tips please as I've never done it before:P 1. How is the taste of the cake? 2. How do you get rid of the excess icing sugar on the fondant to make it so nice and shiny? 3. Do you need to make the "accessories" ahead of time?
Sorry for so many questions .... a nervous mum here :P
The cake is just chocolate butter cake. The fondant taste like marshmallow, children will like that. Don't use too much icing sugar or corn flour for dusting. Use a clean brush and brush away excess icing sugar left on the fondant. You can mould the figurines and cut out one or two days ahead, keep in an container for drying before decorating on the fondant cake.
Hihi, I just wanted to thank you for all the tips and I managed to do my fondant cake successfully on Saturday!!!! Woo Hoo... You can have a look at my blog http://theevolvingbean.blogspot.com/
