I have been working on this particular cake for a few days now, and finished it last night. I was extremely happy with it, sent a picture of it to the anxious mother who loved it, covered it last night, and relaxed. About two hours later I went to look at it again, and there was a giant air bubble forming on the side! Between the fondant and frosting, like a giant air pimple. lol I popped it by poking a small hole and slowing pressing the air out. A few hours later...back again! So I did the same thing, then poked a tiny hole under one of the decorations and piped a tiny bit of frosting in, thinking maybe the fondant just wasn't sticking to the frosting for some reason. A few hours later..there it was again!
I went to bed (had dreams all night of waking up to finding cake bits blown all over my kitchen, eesh) and there it was again! I have to deliver this cake in two hours, and now the fondant is even getting soft and puckered in that place. I may just cry. Please, does anyone have any ideas on how to make this go away! It just needs to make it 3 more hours! Thank you!!
(btw, it's a three layer devil's food cake, fully cooled before iced, then crumb coated and stuck in the fridge overnight before adding final layer of frosting and fondant)
