Hello

I,m in process of making wedding cakes , my q is it ok to fill the cake with non dairy whipping cream and icing it with the same cream before deliver time by 3 days

I will bake 4 dayes earlier , filling and icing second say the 3 tieres

Fondant covering and decorating third day , delivering the fourth day

I can't really help because I wouldn't even consider using non dairy whipping cream on a cake, under fondant. Why can't you use bc?

It will get dry and rubbery within an hour. Can you ice with a thin coat and cover with fondant within an hour?

If you know it gets dry and rubbery why would you even try to use it on a WEDDING CAKE ?

Yes it will dry. It will also likely melt your fondant.

I heard the same as KoryAK that non dairy whipping cream melt fondant. Not sure about the rubber texture. I think icing it with buttercream will work much better.

Now that it's changed to filling only, of course it can't dry out and get rubbery without the air getting to it. It will be fine.

ditto. Using the non-dairy cream as filling only changes the question completely. There's no air inside the cake to dry the stuff out. Now your cake will be fine.
