Buttercream vs. Fondant

[ Follow Ups ] [ Post Followup ] [ "CAKE IDEAS & SUGGESTIONS" ] [ FAQ ]

Posted by Vicki on February 09, 2008 at 10:44:15:

My daughter is getting married this summer and I am making her cake. I am new to cake decorating, having just completed the wilton classes this past summer. I love the look of the fondant cakes and decorations they are gorgeous, however, we don't care for the taste and texture of the rolled fondant. Is it possible to still use the gumpaste decorations (Lace, drapes, etc.) over a cake iced in buttercream or will they not stay in place or cause other problems?
