How do I prepare Renshaw fondant for covering a cake?

Bring the fondant to room temperature so it becomes supple, then work it briefly with clean hands to remove any stiffness. Roll it out on a lightly dusted surface to the recommended thickness, lift gently over the cake, and smooth to remove air pockets and creases.

• Knead until soft and elastic before rolling.
• Roll to 2–4 mm for full-coverage; thinner for delicate details.
• Use a smoothing tool or your hands to achieve crisp edges and a neat finish.
• Trim excess with a sharp knife or fondant cutter for clean lines.

What decorating techniques work best with this fondant?

Renshaw fondant is formulated to be versatile — ideal for covering, molding, and cutting. It holds shapes well for molded decorations, can be layered for dimensional work, and supports embossing, texturing, or airbrushing when dry.

• Cover cakes smoothly for a polished base layer.
• Mold flowers, bows, and figures after adding a touch of paste for strength.
• Cut shapes with cutters or sculpt with modeling tools for detail work.
• Dust with edible color or shimmer once set for enhanced effects.

Will this fondant hold up for events and transport?

When applied correctly, Renshaw fondant provides a durable, resistant outer layer that helps protect decorations during display and transport. Avoid humid conditions and allow the fondant to set before stacking or moving the finished cake to reduce the chance of softening or marking.

• Allow a brief drying time after covering for a stable surface.
• Keep cakes in a cool, dry place to maintain texture and finish.
• For structural pieces, consider support wires or gum paste reinforcements.
• Use gentle handling and a firm cake base for safer transport.
