Disclaimer: Please note that these guides are specifically designed for round cakes and are intended as a helpful reference. The calculations are based on covering cakes with a fondant thickness of 4mm and a cake board of 3mm. While I’ve accounted for variations in the weight of different fondant brands, there may still be slight differences.
If you find that the fondant you use requires a slightly different amount, I’d love to hear your feedback so I can refine and improve these guides for everyone!
I really hope you enjoy the tutorial. Thank you so much for watching and don't forget to like the video and subscribe for more cake decorating tutorials!
