Knead more powdered sugar into the fondant until it's not sticky, but still pliable. Add a small amount of the powdered sugar at a time, so you don't use more than necessary, or the fondant will get dry and difficult to work with.

How do you make and Easy 2 layer fondant cake and does marshmallow fondant taste good?

Fondant is relatively easy to work with but, in my experience, not delicious at all. To make a 2 layer cake, you simply bake two different sizes. Drape the fondant over the bottom layer and trim, then place the smaller layer on top and cover it with fondant. If you do not plan to add additional decorations along the seam of the two layers (I would recommend doing so), you may want to cover the top layer with the fondant prior to placing it so you can wrap a little under and avoid scoring the bottom layer while trimming the top. If you are making a very dense cake, you may want to insert wooden supports into the bottom layer to support the top.


Can you use lemon curd under fondant on a sponge cake?

Yes, you can use lemon curd under fondant on a sponge cake, but it's important to ensure that it's applied correctly. Lemon curd is quite acidic and can make the fondant sticky if not sealed properly. To prevent this, it's advisable to first cover the sponge cake with a layer of buttercream or ganache before adding the lemon curd, as this will create a barrier. Once set, you can then apply the fondant for a smooth finish.
