Hi everyone,

I have not worked with fondant a lot yet. I am making a purse cake for Sunday. I made some marshmallow fondant today. It seemed to be easy to make and I rolled it out. I cut out some shapes I will need for the purse. Can I leave them in the fridge? Do I need to let them dry a little before putting them on the cake? Also, I am frosting the cake in buttercream so how do I attach the pieces of fondant? Will it just stick well to the buttercream on it's own? I would appreciate any help. Thanks.

Heather
