I am working on a wedding cake that I have due tomorrow and might need to change the bride's design a little. My fondant gave me issues along the bottom edges and the beading she wanted might not cover the flaws enough.

I was thinking about using a blue ribbon instead of the blue beading, but was wondering if this might be a deal breaker.

Has anyone out there been in a similar situation? What did you do?

Can you put a white ribbon on the edge and the blue beads over that? Or put another fondant strip to match the cake around the base, then put the beading over it.

I don't have any white ribbon, but I do have blue that matches her colors. I might see if my 24 hour store has some white ribbon, but the fondant border might be good enough if I can't get white ribbon

Edited: I forgot to say thank you for the advice
