A. Fondant is a sugar dough that is rolled out and draped over the cake to create a silky smooth finish that is trimmed and detailed. It can be colored and or flavored as desired. Basic vanilla, coconut, rich dark chocolate or anything you like. Fondant has gotten a bad rap, mostly because many bakeries use a poor quality fondant that can have a terrible taste and texture. While fondant definitely has a different texture than traditional buttercream, it is much like a soft tootsie roll and it does have a very yummy taste. The taste is much like icing because the primary ingredient is confectioners sugar. I have chosen to make my fondant because it has a much softer texture and is in my opinion, better than the prepackaged version. Homemade fondant also doesn’t have any preservatives in it, which make it very chewy and generally the reason some do not like it.
A. Gumpaste is a sugar dough that is used to create intricate edible details. It looks a lot like fondant but hardens faster, so it can be used to make just about anything from a sugar stiletto to porcelain like flowers. Each gumpaste detail is hand painted and completely edible. Because gumpaste details are so beautiful and realistic they can be pricey because of the time it takes to create.
They are little works of art to me and one of my favorite things about cake making!
