    FINALLY! An actual good demonstration video !! I love that you said, ‘Don’t cry about it, fix it and move on with your life’ 😂😂 I need to remember that because I’m definitely a stresser and cry over everything when I decorate with fondant 😂😂 saving this vid for later!

    The upside down bowl is genius. I wish I’d watched your video last night when I was struggling with the bottom of the cake instead of waking up this morning and seeing how terrible it looks!! I’ll use this in the future.
    I always hide the mess at the bottom with some kind of thin band or decorations but this one is for someone else and had to copy a picture. I have no idea what I’m going to do to fix it!

    Thanks Liz... I'm doing my first ganached cake next week... Perfect timing 👍🏼 also wanted to say thanks for periscope series on getting started with a cake business. Especially the bit about logo design. My husband is a graphic designer and had told me the exact same thing about keeping it simple. Well, I listened to him after watching your periscope and now he is less annoyed with me constantly wanting to tweak my design!! Haha.

    Fondant cakes was all I ever knew growing up in the UK. So when I moved to America, I was surprised that birthday cakes typically come covered in cream and not fondant. I had to go to a wedding cake shop just to order fondant cakes for birthdays. Now I can make my own fondant birthday cakes at home.

    Great video, very helpful. Idk what lmf is, assuming it's the brand or type of fondant? Also, was that crisco you had in that little bowl that you used to work into the fondant? I'm like, brand new to fondant, been cooking about 22 years and just getting into baking. It's a fun and wildly expansive field of culinary art and I have nothing but respect for you and others who have the talent for it.

      'LMF' was the acronym given to her fondant by the community after it became popular with bakers. L and M are her initials and F is, of course, fondant.

    @salpon 8 лет назад

    I'm pretty new at fondant. Only covered a handful of cakes with it. I have wondered what to do with the dirty fondant offcuts. Perhaps because I'm new at it, I often end up with a not-insignificant amount of waste.

    • @Artisancakecompany
      @Artisancakecompany  8 лет назад +1

      +Matthew Ryan There shouldnt be any waste. If you are crumb coating your cakes and then covering with buttercream before you cover with fondant there should only be maybe a little buttercream on a small part which can be kneaded into the fondant and will not affect it.
