Cake-Fondant or Buttercream
So the cake we really want for DDS birthday party needs to be made out of fondant. Did anyone have a fondant cake--did the kiddies eat it

Re: Cake-Fondant or Buttercream
I prefer the fondant - besides there is buttercream underneath -so if they don't like the fondant they can pick it off and eat the rest - I think the fondant makes for a better looking cake.

yeah thats what the bakery said too. All the cakes I like have sugarpaste animals so buttercream cant hold them

Re: Cake-Fondant or Buttercream
its expensive too. I wanted it but it was $70 extra.
I ended up with whipped cream and it was DEL-ISH!!!! (Tilda's)

Yes it looks better but I think most people don't like th taste of it, so its kind of a waste to get it with fondant.

REAL buttercream. Both our wedding cake and DD baptism cake were of it and it looked and tasted awesome!!
If not buttercream, than real whipped cream.

Re: Cake-Fondant or Buttercream
Fondant looks beautiful but you can always take it off carefully when you cut it to reveal the buttercream underneath!
