you are so good, these cakes look fantastic! Hey what do you tint you fondant with? already colored fondant or the gel colors? (If gel have you noticed your colors fading)?
I don't do the already colored fondant, because I make my fondant. I don't like the taste of the store-bought kind. I use gel coloring, because that's what they asked me to buy for my first cake decorating class. But for any new colors, I will be buying the powder. If you want the fondant really dark and use a lot of the color, it makes it really sticky and gummy. The powdered color won't do that. I haven't had any issues with the colors fading.
Welcome to my cake blog! I took a cake decorating class a few years ago and have been hooked ever since. I have a blog about my life, but for some reason the cakes and goodies started to take over, so this is my new home for the photos of all my goodies, and maybe you'll find a recipe or two.
