Frequently asked questions
How can I prevent the fondant from cracking when covering a cake?
Knead the fondant for 2 to 3 minutes to soften it before rolling. Roll it out to a thickness of 4–5 mm on a surface dusted with icing sugar and smooth from the centre towards the edges without trapping air bubbles. If cracks appear, smooth them with your finger and a drop of water.
Can Sparkling Gold replace gold leaf on a wedding cake?
It creates a sparkling golden effect over the entire surface, more subtle than applied gold leaf but without the need for an additional gilding step.
How long can a covered cake be stored?
2 to 3 days at room temperature (15–22 °C), protected from humidity and direct light. Do not refrigerate: the fondant will sweat and become sticky when exposed to the cold.
