Fondant cake tutorials #1: Camouflage fondant cake tutorial

Here is an tutorial how to make camouflage fondant cake. Hope it will be helpful.

First find the camouflage pattern you like and transfer it on a sheet of wax paper. Use toothpick, pencil or fondant tools to transfer it from wax paper on fondant

Choose your colours, mine were light and dark green, sand and dark brown.

Roll a sheet of lighter green. It can be a bit smaller then you need ‘cause you will put more layers of fondant. ( but, don’t make it too small, at the end if it’s not good, you can’t just knead it and roll again).

Use your pattern and cut shapes of dark green.

Arrange them on the base and then roll out again. I’ve made a bit thicker pieces, I was afraid that it wouldn’t cover the whole cake, but you can do them thinner, it will roll out better.

Repeat this on lighter brown fondant.

And again on dark brown fondant.

Then cover your cake.

If necessary glue the edges of pieces on base and smooth the fondant.
Add the details on a cake. I’ve put a soldier and tent.
