Can these little cars be covered in fondant or are the details too small? Thank you!

have not used this myself, bought for a gift. however, i think fondant would not be suitable for covering these. perhaps candy melts in the colors you want would do what you were hoping to do.

If your intentions are to cover the pan itself with fondant, then yes you could. The detail should show through. The cars only measure 2 inches tall though. Not sure how fondant would look on the cup cake, probably not a lot of detail would show through. The pan is primarily a cup cake pan, Not a cake pan. The detail of cup cakes varies on type of cake batter you use in the pan. I hope this helped.

I think the details are too small for fondant. I used decorative icing and candy.

They are actual cars, but about 60% of the size of a Hot Wheels or Matchbox car. Very detailed and cute, though.

I don't know if all of the "blemishes" are the same for each one but the one I ordered had a bent corner on the third tier. I covered the edges with ribbon and covered the crease by gluing scrap-booking paper to the top of each tier (where the cupcakes sit). As long as you plan on decorating it, you shouldn't have any problems covering up a blemish.

I don't care for fondant, so don't use it, but I know that gel colors are better, brighter (specifically AmeriColor) for fondant. Hope this helps.

The flowers are pink on my covers. I haven't put them on because I have a canvas dog cover on the back seat due to little ones riding back there. No dogs, just my great grandkids that can be messy. My car is a 2013 Subaru Crosstrek which is a small SUV. I believe the Kia Soul is also small. Since I haven't put them on don't know how it really fits.

This item was a gift to a baker. I presented your question and she stated: I believe it would be fine, but I would not risk it when you could just buy chocolate fondant, coat the mould with powder sugar or corn starch stuff the mould with fondant and freeze 30 minutes. I would love to forward a picture for you to see.

They are fairly small. Smaller than a matchbox car probably half the size if that helps you.

Good Morning, The track size is 40" x 60" oval and yes you can buy extra cars. Lionel made a Peanuts christmas car last year 2012 and may still be available. Thanks Len B E Discount Trains

What I have found so far, you can only use the cars that come with the tracks. The track measures 2 1/4 " on the inside of the track and 3' on the outside. I have found you need to buy a couple of sets of the track to really make a good size track. The batteries do run out fast on the cars.

No, the cars are only about an inch long and they are special made for this track. The wheels are actually medal rollers. A Hot Wheels car would be too big

The numbers are about 1.25" wide and 1.75" tall. I used them for making crayons with melted wax and that worked well, so I think fondant might work well too.

I used this fondant for my daughter's birthday cake. I LOVED the way it rolled out and became very pliable, and it tasted SO much better than the wilton stuff. However, when it came using the fondant for cutouts (I had star wars cookie cutters and wanted to use fondant for the shapes) it was really soft. Maybe I had just worked it for too long, I don't know. I ended up using wilton for the decorations. Maybe you could put it in the fridge for awhile before you tried making figures? That might help.

If I remember correctly the decals were not already on the car and you can leave them off. FYI I do my recommend this car for purchase. It was very small and unsafe. Seemed flimsy. It is worth it to spend the extra money. Not to mention mine was broken and didn't work anyway. The return was easy though.

I put a little vegetable shortening on mine. Because my fondant was sticking to the mat. I didn't get any marks on mine. But I did wipe it down with the shortening then with another clean paper towel to spread the shortening. Hope this helps.

they are about 1 inch tall but fairly thin cut you will need to freeze the fondant or have it very dry

I would say too thin. When I use them with fondant I have to roll it out very thin for them to work. I have used them on a thicker product but basically just pressed it in to get the outline then used an exacto knife to cut them out all the way so maybe that would work for you.
