For cracks, gently smooth the area with a bit of vegetable shortening or water, then reapply a thin layer of fondant if necessary.

If the surface is uneven, use a fondant smoother to even it out, or lightly roll the fondant to make it more pliable.
store bought fondant is not as good as it looks. what i think is that homemade fondant is by far the best. bakers usually put butter cream to make it taste better. hope this helped.
