Fondant White Scroll Tiara Tutorial
This is a tutorial on how I made the fondant white scroll tiara above. This is one of the easiest tiaras to make and does not require a lot of drying time. The body of the tiara is made by rolling fondant into cords, twisting the codes into scrolls and sticking them together on a cylindrical object. If you are looking for a quick and easy fondant tiara, look no further.
TOOLS:
(1) Cylindrical object wrapped with parchment paper
(2) Paint Brush
THE PROCESS:
(1) Roll fondant into thin tubes. Lay the wrapped cylindrical object on its side and place a fondant tube half way around the base of the object. This will serve as the base of the tiara.
(2) Begin sticking other tubes on the base fondant in scrolls. There is no right or wrong way of going about this. Have fun with this design and create a tiara according to your needs.
(3) When you are done, leave the tiara to dry on its side for a few hours or over night. When it is dry enough to stand on its own, remove the cylindrical object from inside. If you like, you can stick white sugar pearls in strategic areas of the tiara.
(4) Finish the tiara by dusting it with pearl dust. Happy caking!

They rest on the container to dry. Also use firm fondant.
Thanks so much Terry for being so generous with your knowledge on sugar craft. You’re a role model to me.
I once tried making this fondant tiara but it broke when I tried removing from the cylindrical tin I placed it on. Pls, do you have any idea why that happened? I want to know because I desire to try it again. Thanks.
Hi Abioye. Several things could have happened. The fondant was not dry; it stuck to the cylinder as you didnt cover the cylinder first; it was wrapped too tightly around the cylinder; It was made to wrap around the complete cylinder as opposed to just a little bit over half of it, et cetera.
