Random adventures with fondant

Mmm bright colours. Some colours take really well to fondant. So I got a bit excited and want ed to put shapes on cakes straightaway!


Not these guys though. I made these because soft fondant is a bit like play dough. So I played...

Here are the shapes that I actually made. Round shapes are hard because as soon as you pick them up they turn into Dali-esque melting discs. But for a first go I thought they looked good.


I had enough cupcakes though, and too much icing. What do you do with leftover icing? I made rainbows...
Note to self: Rainbows actually look pretty cool.


If I'd had my time again maybe I would have just made rainbow cakes. Or not. who knows.

PS - I did find that you can't transport fondant cakes in an air tight container. Particularly on a warm day. Dali cakes...
