HOW TO FIX FONDANT TEARS/FONDANT CRACKS

In this fondant video tutorial, I showed you how to fix tears and cracks as well as elephant skin while covering your cake with fondant.
There are several factors that could affect your fondant's quality but that should not hinder you from achieving your desired cake design. Practicing and researching play important roles in becoming skilled in using fondant on cakes.
Humid countries tend to have sweaty fondant because condensation takes place when the chilled cake is brought out from the fridge to a high-temperature environment. This is normal, don't panic because when fondant has adapted to the temperature outside the fridge, it will just dry up.
Fondant will crack when it is dry. It needs to be very pliable before using it on cakes or molding it. Knead the fondant properly until it becomes pliable again. Sometimes you need to add some drops of water to soften your fondant and then knead it until it becomes pliable.
Hardened or frozen fondant should be brought to room temperature before use. You can chop it into smaller pieces and then knead them together until it becomes pliable again. You can also microwave it to bring back its softness.
"Knead until it becomes pliable."

Can we do this for b utter cream coated cake

[@cakemeaway3485]

The buttercream needs to be firm from refrigeration

After covering the cake with whipping cream should we keep the cake in refrigerator??

[@cakemeaway3485]

Yes,always

[@evegar4528]

OMG

[@brittannirenner8230]

Great video !! But may I suggest captions please ! You talk very fast.

[@cakemeaway3485]

Ok,Thanku

[@kendraschiele3657]

Yes I agree very hard to understand

[@MF12318]

The idea is great, but you are fixing the fondant on a dummy cake, which is easier to do than on a real cake. The real one is more delicate, so pressing one as you did on your video would affect the cake itself because of the force you use to smooth the torn part. Have you tried this technique on a real cake?

[@cakemeaway3485]

That’s a real cake covered in chocolate ganache

[@PRINCESSROCKYT]

Thank you for correcting, I loved it

[@zaneblane8160]

​@@cakemeaway3485 ...it is important to mention that..we need to know the kind of cake, cold or room temp, icing, etc. This will not work on buttercream unless it's frozen.

[@ladytw22]

I just love you, but slow down lol

[@katiuszaYT]

But I can see bubbles...

[@cakemeaway3485]

If only the video was about how to remove bubbles 🧐Faultfinder!

[@katiuszaYT]

@@cakemeaway3485 Thanks for the repair method. Works pretty good.

[@cherylwilson3132]

TAKE A BREATH

[@rosefinikin5620]

I was super excited to try this but it did not work🥲.
I used the highest quality- Satin Ice fondant.
