TIP OF THE TRADE:

VIVA TOWEL SMOOTHING METHOD

Q: How do I get a really smooth finish on my crusting buttercream icing covered cake?

A: Use plain white Viva Paper Towel.
  • The VIVA paper towel method goes like this: Ice and smooth your cake as much as possible with spatula. After the icing crusts (about 15 – 30 minutes, time will vary, depending on icing recipe, weather and other environmental conditions) take a plain white Viva paper towel (this brand because it’s one of the only paper towels without a bumpy pattern on it) and gently smooth the icing on the cake.
  • Some decorators use a spatula between the toweling and the icing, while some use a fondant smoother, others use a bench scraper, or some use their hands, which is tricky to avoid finger divot marks in the frosting.
A WORD OF CAUTION: Do not use any paper toweling with printed ink. This toweling is not FOOD SAFE. The chemicals used in the inking process is harmful to food and could leach into the icing.

Tips of the Trade: 

CRACKING FONDANT

Q: How do you get fondant with no cracks?
A: Most cracking is caused by 5 main reasons.
1. Fondant is too dry. Add shortening or buttercream icing. (see below)
2. Using an unbalanced recipe. When making fondant from scratch blend all ingredients thoroughly. I like using the freshest materials I can.
3. Not kneading it enough to warm it up. To get the best results fondant must be kneaded to a soft and pliable consistency before rolling or sheeting. Microwaving a block for only 15 seconds can help to warm the fondant to allow easier kneading. (Caution: over heating can cause burns to your skin & dry the fondant.)
4. Not quick enough manipulating the fondant and it drys.  Try THE PRO MAT Fondant Application System. Roll your fondant between two food-safe vinyl fondant mat. Visible guide marks allow proper sizing before your apply.
5. The ambient room temperature is too warm causing drying & over stretching?
  • Try kneading in a dollop of some delicious flavorful buttercream icing to restore a more pliable consistency, flavor your fondant and compliment your cake.
  • Try this: If the cracks are along the edges of the cake, rub some white vegetable shortening into the fondant and rub in a circular pattern until smooth. Don’t worry, the shortening will absorb into the fondant.
  • Greasing your work surface with veg. shortening will also moisturize while prevent sticking.
