how to decorate a cake with fondant

I remember the way the cakes decorated sleeve few years ago ... Molds for fun shapes were rented to decorate then with small stars icing color. There were molds for all tastes, "Cookie Monster" in "Superman"! But the food trends, as decoration, evolve. And now the cake "IN" is decorated with fondant.

I watched for some time an artist in the field on facebook: MIMI CAKES. In fact, I even booked him a cake for the party of my daughter Lily-Rose. Then she announced that she would offer courses. What a joy! I waited a long time the event ...

When we arrived, the table is already full of products ... What happiness for a passionate like me!

Tens of equipment and products that I am looking forward to trying.

The beautiful Mimi ALL you need!

A cake waiting for us all, and Mimi tells us first icing the cake with butter cream, which then host the fondant.

Then we learn to make fondant home

Stuff Mimi are really well explained and the steps are clear. She then tells us to color the fondant.

It is shaped arms, because it takes long enough to knead the dough!

Colors based on the well, then roll it ... ready to expand on the cake!

And here! This step is the most complex to run, because it requires that the flux is covering the round cake without creases ... It is therefore necessary to stretch the dough ... but not too much! Otherwise, it rocks!

Then the excess size!

Mimi then tells us to make roses, calla lilies, carnations ... short ALL FULL beautiful things!

Here MA pink! She is successful, but I chose not to decorate my cake with roses (It's a bit too long to do!)

I finally made a cake to die (faster) I decorated for Easter! The cake can be frozen! I will therefore serve our Easter party!

I can not wait to do more! I think it will be expensive to store accessories decorations cake! (YES YES 'I know he is very busy! What do you want? I love it as well!)

If the course you are interested, you will find MIMI CAKES on facebook, but will have to be patient friends!
