"Hi, I'm Karen for Expert Village. Next, we would be covering our cake with a sugar paste or a fondant. This is a ready made product that I bought. There are recipes for sugar paste and fondant you can look those up. But the ready made product is consistent and very easy to use.

I have one of these pie rolling out plastics that I use just for the fondant. Because it is very important for the fondant to stay clean. You can also use baking paper that is good. You can keep changing it for a clean surface. You might have a little bit of trouble if when you are rolling things out because it does shift and move.
