Let me give you a brief explanation. I used to decorate cakes back in the 80's. Never really got great at it, life got in the way and I HATED fondant, it tasted like crap. Fast forward, my son asked for a Transformer cake like he had when he turned 5 for his 30th birthday party, an 80's themed party, and his friend Laura was having a birthday too. So I made the Original Optimus Prime, and Rainbow Brite. One of the Sgts. asked if I could do a Lighting McQueen for her son, (she saw the son's cake which was all buttercream). Sure, no problem. And I decide to make MMF, and ended up with this. Not knowing how to work fondant, I went by the seat of my pants. Not bad for a first ever try with fondant.
