Hi there:
Can I use this buttercream to cover a cake and then top with Fondant? I have never tried to do it this way but am dying to try it... Next month is cake month for me since it's valentines, mom's b-day, baby shower...etc. so I wanted to try something better tasting than the regular standard WILTON buttercream? Please help! :0)) BTW, I love the cake...so awesome!
Yes, a solid coat of buttercream will help create a base for the fondant to prevent "stripes" showing in the outside appearance of the cake, as well as creating smooth edges for the fondant. Irene @ KAF
