How I cover my vanilla cake with gelatin fondant

Firstly I combcroat my cake with some little butter cream after combcroating then I leave for like 5 to 10 mins before decorating

Then I measured the height and length of my cake, before rolling my fondant out with my rolling pin, after it is well measured then I cover my cake with the fondant, and I make use of my smoother to get my sharp edges and make it look beautiful and clean

After then I added some pink fondant to decorate the body so it will make it look more beautiful.
