What is the difference between fondant and buttercream?
Fondant is a type of European icing that is similar to a dough. We can tint it to just about any color and is also available in different flavors. The major flavors offered are vanilla and chocolate. We roll this icing out like dough and place it on the cake. Buttercream is a type of icing that Americans are more used to. It is a sweet, creamy texture that is a buttery flavor and can be flavored with other flavorings as well. You find this type of icing on most cakes sold at supermarkets.
