I am making a wedding cake with 7", 11" and 15" square tiers, with fondant accents and a multi-loop bow.

I was going to order Satin Ice soon from Global Sugar Art since it's a great price right now, but how much will I need for this cake to safely cover it, and have some extra for accents and goofs.

Satin Ice has and ordering guideline on their site:

I hope that's helpful!

Thanks, but I checked it out and they give measurements for round cakes up to 14". I know square cakes take more.

According to Wilton guidelines a 20 lb. bucket, which I planned on ordering at least, should be ample but their guidelines have left me short before. I have never covered such large layers in fondant, as I only do wedding cakes for friends.

Any help from you experts out there that do this frequently?

If I order 20 lbs., is that enough?? HELP!

Hey:
Here's a link to Earlene's fondant chart:

It'll give you an idea of how much fondant you'll need!

edited to say: here's Karen's chart, too, it includes square cakes:
