How to cover a cake and simple decoration with sugar pearls without any special equipment. This is the fondant covering part of my video 'How to make a cake from scratch and cover with fondant.

You will need:

  • buttercream,
  • rolling pin,
  • sugar pearls,
  • knife (pallet or non serrated) and a zip lock or piping bag.
  • icing sugar or cornflour,
  • white veg fat like Trex (in the UK),
  • 700g icing for a 7 inch cake,

This is a great idea for an easy celebration cake. Please do try it!!

Tips - if you get air bubbles in your icing, piece with a pin and roll it out with your rolling pin. Knead your icing for at least 5 mins until soft and pliable. If you rush that step, you will have cracks and lines once you put the icing on the cake.

Enjoy your meal!
