  • LoL Expert village? they call this an expert lmao

  • While I respect the people who post videos online, calling yourself "expert village" tends to make others have higher expectations. This is mediocre at best. There are far better instructionals on here. Also, "Fon- Daaant" gets really old and annoying really fast.

  • as long as it tastes good i dont care how its made

  • i know your right but i think that she wanted the seams because it is a gift box cake and gift boxes have seams

  • I agree with Katyllw. She made this WAAAY harder and more time consuming than is necessary. Just measure the top and add both sides together.  Roll out a large piece of fondant according to your measurements. Then just drape and cut off the excess. It's easier and looks soooo much better because there's no seams.

  • Did you put anything between the frosting and the fondant?

    I saw on some other videos they used piping gel, did you use anything like that?

  • you mean as in watch?v=lyRy2QX2wKo right?

    Yeah, we all need to learn at some point, and I think Karen´s skills are self-taught, my respect for that :)

  • wow wow wow... okay. Common sense, she made this WAY harder than it needs to be. If you cut out a cake board to place under the cake (basically a piece of card board) she could just drape the fondant over the entire cake and cut off the excess from the bottom.

    Sheesh shes making this difficult from beginning to end.
