04 MarWhat is fondant and why is it suitable for wedding cakes?

Fondant is primarily made up of sugar and water. It’s then cooked, stirred or beaten until it turns into a creamy consistency. It can then be rolled and put onto a cake. From here, it can create bows, decorations and in itself, a masterpiece.

Fondant is suitable for use on wedding cakes, because it has a smooth finish that is great for decorations and embellishments. Using fondant can also keep the cake fresh for several days, even in warmer weather, by protecting it from air exposure.
