  1. Fondant icing will be dried quickly so it should be stored in a non-permeable plastic bag and kept in an airtight container. Maintain it at a room temperature and avoid keeping it in a refrigerator. Suppose if the icing became dry and hard it can be recovered by popping it in the oven for a few seconds.
  2. Since Fondant dried out quickly it should be applied to the cake within a few minutes after it is rolled out. After the icing is applied to the cake it can be stored at room temperature for many days.
  3. When it is a multi tier cake and each layer has different icing then do the icing separately and assemble it finally.
  4. To make it look more perfect, make a decorative border around the cake. You can do it to cover the tier joining and to cover the edges.
  5. Always use the fondant icing at the room temperature.
  6. To get a flawless and smooth icing, make sure that the working area, hands and rolling pins are clean and dust free. Long fingernail, long hair, jewels on your wrist and fingers can also cause problems.
