Fondant is different medium which allows artist to put artwork to craft. All the possibility is limitless and what our imagination meeting our mastery in skill sugarcraft can create . Check out our Instagram gallery of masterpiece artwork cakes.
We exceed in both fields
As for our fondant , we use sponge cake as based, it is light flavourful and non overpowering

It subjective to personal preference .
Fondant is more versatile and 3 dimension whereas cream is limited to flat surface designs.
