this is great. i work with fondant a lot, but still learning the tricks of the trade. can't quite seem to get clean-cut coverings yet. this is amazing though. love the dark blues.

Thank you! Yea, I'm still not the greatest with covering square cakes with fondant but this one turned out pretty good, although it took forever to get the fondant to lay correctly.

Its kinda difficult at first (i had a heck of a time covering cakes with it in the beginning) but after a lot of practice, its actually pretty simple now.

I see~
But it is easy for me to make that at home...? Or do I need anything special to make them...?

Actually, alot of the cakes in my gallery were done at my house. You'll probably want a pizza cutter to cut the excess fondant off after you've covered your cake with it, and I use a fondant smoother tool (you can get one at your local craft store) but you can just use your hand as well. Also, it helps a bit if your cake is on a turn table, but its not necessary.
If you need help putting your fondant onto the cake, just look up a video on youtube. They have several tutorials on there that help a lot!
Hope that was helpful, and if you have anymore questions, dont be afraid to ask. Goodluck!

Its the wonderful flavor of styrofoam. I made it just for display and this way it will last longer than regular cake.
