[@stephaniehunt1716]

FINALLY! An actual good demonstration video !! I love that you said, ‘Don’t cry about it, fix it and move on with your life’ 😂😂 I need to remember that because I’m definitely a stresser and cry over everything when I decorate with fondant 😂😂 saving this vid for later!

[@x.lena.x]

Lol 😂

[@Beautybysabrina]

Have you only been practicing on your own or have you taken a class?

[@kyliecoston5581]

AWESOME VIDEO! 👍🏽You make it look soooo easy. I'm ready to get started! 😁

[@dessertofhearts2147]

Belli Thanks for video! What kind of Lotion you ise for moisturizing the fondant?

[@skscils598s09]

Love your video and even more I love that you tell us twice in this video how not to cry about things ans move on with life 😍🙏

[@melanieainley876]

The upside down bowl is genius. I wish I’d watched your video last night when I was struggling with the bottom of the cake instead of waking up this morning and seeing how terrible it looks!! I’ll use this in the future. I always hide the mess at the bottom with some kind of thin band or decorations but this one is for someone else and had to copy a picture. I have no idea what I’m going to do to fix it!

[@suzymoses3753]

Great job. I want to make fondant but can't find some of the ingredients needed here in Munich Germany. Looking for glucose I ended up getting Truben zuger .can someone help me out please.

[@Thepetals81]

Thanks Liz... I'm doing my first ganached cake next week... Perfect timing 👍🏼 also wanted to say thanks for periscope series on getting started with a cake business. Especially the bit about logo design. My husband is a graphic designer and had told me the exact same thing about keeping it simple. Well, I listened to him after watching your periscope and now he is less annoyed with me constantly wanting to tweak my design!! Haha.

[@ofmian3912]

what the white shoes to add to make the fondant smooth you put a something in your hand thank you

[@Boop-beep-bap]

[@desiyuliami]

Hello, I tried to make a cake using fondant yesterday, that was my first time, but why is the fondant that I use melting fast, can you give tricks and tips so that the fondant doesn't fall quickly?

[@Spicious]

Girl thanks for this❤ i wanted tips because it will be my first time using fondant.

[@yvettebernard4112]

Thanks for sharing this is what i ve been looking for..

[@Itsclaireasday]

Fondant cakes was all I ever knew growing up in the UK. So when I moved to America, I was surprised that birthday cakes typically come covered in cream and not fondant. I had to go to a wedding cake shop just to order fondant cakes for birthdays. Now I can make my own fondant birthday cakes at home.

[@killercake90]

is it best to ice the cake first and put in the freezer before covering? or does it just make it sweat??

[@Christina-fk9ke]

killercake90 freeze it for about 10-15 min-- just long enough for the outside to freeze. If the cake freezes all the way through, it will definitely sweat.

[@killercake90]

Christina B. Thank you :)

[@laceyhart5181]

Do you ice it then freeze it?

[@briandmello1981]

How did you get such a nice cake shape?

[@adlinfigueroa6679]

Thank you. I will try again. You make it looks so easy.

[@louisehesseldahl-clausen3578]

Is it Coconut Oil you use for the fondant in the beginning for stretch?

[@pamelablack1080]

do I crumb coat with buttercream, or do I do a full frosting?

[@deborahbowdidge7303]

you should do both,putting in the fridge between coatings

[@prettyshunpink]

Hi, are you supposed to icing the cake before you add the fondant?

[@mariajoannou9936]

hi liz, thanks for sharing... I will be using buttercream under my fondant, should I chill my cake before I cover it? our climate is warm at the minute. thanks

[@katicastevanovic7338]

MARIA JOANNOU put it in a freezer for about 10-15 min just long enough for outside to freeze. You don't want the inside to freeze

[@chaddabuet4911]

@@katicastevanovic7338 thank you for the tips its a lot of help for a beginner like me 😍

[@monsay71]

Liz congratulations on your award on the cake fair in Orlando, well deserved

[@Brenduh03]

[@sharvariparab265]

Hey... can we use double boiler for making warm

[@mauiiicakes6775]

Brilliant video and tutorial! The other tutorial videos are complicated to watch. Yours was easy!

[@yesenia448]

Mauiii Cakes they are all easy to watch 😂😂😂😂

[@blindbrailleable]

Great video, very helpful. Idk what lmf is, assuming it's the brand or type of fondant? Also, was that crisco you had in that little bowl that you used to work into the fondant? I'm like, brand new to fondant, been cooking about 22 years and just getting into baking. It's a fun and wildly expansive field of culinary art and I have nothing but respect for you and others who have the talent for it.

[@hardcyd3r]

Blind yes, she said it was shortening. Crisco is s brand of shortening.

[@savnet_sinn]

'LMF' was the acronym given to her fondant by the community after it became popular with bakers. L and M are her initials and F is, of course, fondant.

I got a leftover of Delight and Cream bell whipped cream,is it okay to used both at once for cakes

[@daisymo1]

You make it look so easy! :)

[@ReetBarnala]

[@richardvillar7540]

What do you call the one that you use to smoothen the fondant?

[@andreeastoica2057]

I want to know as well😅

[@htp7391]

what are you putting on your hands when kneading??

[@gailwilliams7556]

Excellent your teaching is so easy

[@Q_T_Rican]

you make it look so easy. i always have problems with the bottom. i always get pleads. i will try using the small bowl next time. Thank you so much for this tutorial.

[@CherryBlossom80808]

Can we use butter instead of shortening

[@alolapix]

No. Shortening, corn flour or constarch, and powdered sugar works best to work with fondant.

[@jenniferbrady675]

Hi, what is shortening and what is LMF ? Sorry ignorant here ! Great video

[@gabrielizburgos2854]

This is the best video I've seen so far 👍🏼

[@nazakatali8990]

Do you put the cake to set in the fridge again before putting on the sugarpaste after having the thick icing on??

[@MumEssy-sKitchen]

[@mrwildwillie3]

Did you say that your cake was chilled? Do you do that all of the time?

[@thomaslazar7085]

Hi I had a doubt once we frost the cake with ganache should we place the cake in fridge and later cover it with fondant???

[@jomelyncajipe8911]

I really loved your tutorial and your sayings also 💕😍

[@agufranca2926]

Nice work. Pls what did u rub on ur palm.

[@lizettefrancisco3457]

What was it that you added on to the fondant after microwaving it??? Looked like butter

[@Artisancakecompany]

vegetable shortening, keeps it from sticking to your hands/table etc and from it drying out

[@johncaleb8497]

is there an alternative?

[@christinemumba9602]

Can add flour instead of sugar?

[@preshizpink4340]

Thank you for not adding annoying music ❤

[@spidertone1]

I love your videos! I am having problems with the fondant however. It is getting very sticky and sweaty after I apply to the cake... I can't even touch it with out it turning into goo. How can I fix this? What am I doing wrong :.....(

[@carlavuala]

The cake have to be at room temperature or cold?

[@solfarladansky1820]

Do you recommend making one tall cake or can you make it several lavers?

[@reemaalmu9172]

I tried the chilling cake thing then put fondant on and it sweats gets sticky and start to have little holes in it.I never do it again.I just frost the cake and cover in fondant.does your cake sweats?

[@emilydavid6719]

May I please ask how set the cake has to be when iced with ganache before placing fondant onto it?

[@Artisancakecompany]

I chill my cakes overnight in the fridge so they are very firm

[@Dawn2Dusk23]

Awesome video! May I ask what rolling pin you are using? I love purple and I fell in love with your rolling pin at first sight! lol

[@afeefaazeez7547]

What is the colour you used for the fondant plz?

Hi, I am from Jakarta-Indonesia. What kind butter cream you use? Can I get recipe for that butter cream

[@Artisancakecompany]

I use my easy buttercream recipe on this channel

[@amykliewer-maxwell9742]

LOVE your LMF!!! Where did you get that rolling pin? I've been looking for a good one

[@salpon]

I'm pretty new at fondant. Only covered a handful of cakes with it. I have wondered what to do with the dirty fondant offcuts. Perhaps because I'm new at it, I often end up with a not-insignificant amount of waste.

[@Artisancakecompany]

+Matthew Ryan There shouldnt be any waste. If you are crumb coating your cakes and then covering with buttercream before you cover with fondant there should only be maybe a little buttercream on a small part which can be kneaded into the fondant and will not affect it.

[@alejandrobriones1337]

Is this an 8 inch two layered cake?

[@fiorefer379]

Was the fondant a little sticky after that stretching work?

[@ensolicz5007]

Wow that was easy, you nailed it

[@alinepoin3026]

To cover a ganache cake, do you let it get to room temperature? Or is it cold? Thank you

[@rayanajjar6312]

Aline Poin its usually out of the fridge so the butter cream doesn't melt and move around.
