Buttercream frosting is softer and generally tastes better than fondant. In fact, most adults find fondant too sweet — it’s common practice to peel it off before eating the cake underneath. At Craig’s Cake Shop, we don’t use fondant. All of our cake decorations are made with buttercream frosting so that every bite is delicious, and you won’t have to worry about throwing any fondant away to get to the part that you really want to eat!
