TIP #1: Refrigerate your cake in between each step! I didn't do this and my marshmallow frosting melted into the cake layers which caused my fondant to droop! TIP #2: I would use a buttercream frosting instead of marshmallow frosting in between layers because of the weight of the sugar dome. Originally the dome was going to be made out of gelatin so this wasn't something I had considered during prep. Also, use cake rods around the area that the dome will sit. Again, since the dome was originally going to be made from gelatin this wasn't something I originally needed. TIP #3: Test pour some of the heated sugar syrup on an UNFILLED balloon before attempting to pour it on a WATER FILLED balloon to make sure the balloon material can withstand the EXTREME temperatures. TIP #4: Allow the sugar syrup mixture (link below to recipe) to cool to where there are no more bubbles visible BEFORE pouring it over the water filled balloon. TIP #5: Allow your sugar dome to cool completely for at least 12 hours on the balloon before SLOWLY draining water from the balloon. I drained my balloon within an hour of pouring the syrup and that is why the top of my sugar bowed. [RECIPES] ...Sugar Dome... Follow this amazing tutorial by How To Cook That https://www.howtocookthat.net/public_... ...The MOST Delicious Chocolate Cake... 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon baking powder 2 teaspoons baking soda 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 2 cups sugar 1 cup vegetable oil 1 cup hot coffee 1 cup milk 2 large eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla 1) Preheat oven to 325°F. 2) In a large mixing bowl, sift together dry ingredients. Add oil, coffee and milk and mix at medium speed for 2 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla and beat 2 more minutes. Expect batter to be thin. 3) Pour into 2 floured 8" round pans. Bake 8" pans for about 38 minutes. Cool in pans for about 15 minutes and then cool completely on racks. ...Marshmallow Frosting Recipe... 4 large egg whites 3/4 cup sugar 6 Tbsp light corn syrup 1 tsp vanilla extract 1) Place the egg whites, sugar and corn syrup in a large metal bowl over a saucepan of water (double broiler style). 2) Beat with a hand mixer while heating until soft peaks form (about 4 mins). Pull off heat and place in a room temperature bowl or place warm bowl into a larger bowl of ice. 3) Add vanilla and keep beating until stiff peaks form. ...Fondant Recipe... 16 ounces white marshmallows 2-4 tablespoons water 2 lbs (about 8 cups) sifted confectioners' sugar 1/2 cup vegetable shortening 1) Add 2 tablespoons of water to your marshmallows. 2) Microwave for 30 second intervals, and stir in between. 3) Stir your marshmallow mix, and pour in ¾ of your sifted powdered sugar. Fold the sugar though. 4) Smear shortening onto your bench. Cover your hands with shortening, as well. 5) Knead your fondant for 8-10 minutes. Continue to add powdered sugar as needed. 6) Your fondant is almost ready when it’s starting to dry out. If it isn’t stretching and breaking, it needs more water because it’s too firm. Your fondant should stretch 2 inches before breaking. 7) Rub shortening over the entire outside of your fondant. Wrap twice before storing.
