Will people eat fondant now?

I'm so excited to find this online. Real fruit fondant!

Generally people love fondant icing for its versatility and it makes beautiful cake presentations. But sadly, once the cake is cut, it will be peeled off and left on the side of the plate while the cake is being consumed. And more often than not, they usually end up in the trash can. Sometimes, i wish it was made of wax instead. Such a waste of (expensive) resources and effort. It is, literally an eye candy.

Perhaps now that it comes in flavours, (orange, lemon, blackcurrant, raspberry and strawberry) people will start eating fondant. I for one, don't really have a sweet tooth, but i can't wait for them to reach our shores to sample it :)

Do I dare??

Before i share in an entry of the cupcakes i did for my friend's engagement day, here's some news. Joanne, our instructor told us about it 2 weeks back. A Cake Competition held by ICCA in October.

Looking at the prizes, i feel so tempted to take part but looking at my competence level at the moment, hmm... perhaps not :'(

For those who are interested, get info and rules of the competition here. Good luck!

I, as a cake decorating hobbyist will definitely feel the pinch! :'(
