Faux Fondant

Faux Rolled Fondant

Place two 8" round layers together.  Round off top edge by trimming with serrated knife.

Crumb coat the cake and freeze it for about 5 minutes.  This hardens the icing and provides a firm surface for the final coat of icing which should be applied as smoothly as possible using a spatula.

Complete the contour look by lightly brushing the surface with a fan-tail brush dipped in hot water.

NOTE:  Fan-tail brushes can be purchased at your local art supply store
