The only thing I can think of is to make your fondant thinner - place the cake that has been crumb coated in the freezer to stiffen it up a bit then put the fondant on. Quickly get it smooth then leave it on the counter until the moisture goes away (if any) and continue to work on it. Thought for the day. If we toss a blanket over just about anything, we create round edges. :-) Hey, did you guys know that this site thinks that another word for moisture - like what you do under your armpits, is offensive????

: When I cover a cake with fondant (iced 1st in buttercream)- if often makes the edges on the top of the cake look rounded & sort of "pulled down". Any Hints?
