When I saw this post I had to make them for the Royal Wedding this morning. We all got up early and went into work to watch the wedding and bring breakfast. I was in charge of the petite fours. What a disaster. I baked my cake early in the week and froze the sheet cake. Then I cut it horizontally and filled with strawberry jam and refroze. Last night I cut the cake into squares and started to spoon the fondant over the squares and the top layer kept sliding off the bottom layer. I gave up and just used a decorating tip and dolloped buttercream on top as you did. They tasted wonderful and everyone loved them but they weren't as pretty without the fondant. Not one to give up what can I do differently. I used your recipe for cake and fondant. Thanks! I'm sorry you had trouble with the cakes sliding apart. The only thing I can think of is that maybe there was a bit too much jam in the layers or it got too warm? I hope you enjoyed the wedding at least. They looked like such a happy pair. ~ MaryJane
