re: Need some urgent advice please!! Ref fondant icing and tiered cakes!

My dear I’m just starting out myself and the best advice I can give you is from my own experience: sometimes it can be 3 times the work to cover up a mistake, than it would be to take it apart and start over. If you have crumbs it suggests you haven’t done a good crumb coat – if you don’t know what that is you should Google it. If you look through my cakes, i had to cover the layered gemstone cake 2 times, and 3 full times for the lowest tier of my soft peach & gold. By the last cake I did I managed it first time – but only because of what I learnt through the other times. Good luck xx
