Sweet dreams at the fair by Caleb Nickerson

 Ashley LaSalle will be giving a demonstration at the Shawville Fair on Friday, Sept. 1 at 7 p.m. on using fondant to decorate cakes. Pictured, she poses with one of her creations back at the opening of BMR JLS in Mansfield in April.

Those looking for an alternative to traditional fair fare will have a sweet new option this year.
On Friday, Sept. 1 at 7 p.m., Ashley LaSalle will be giving a live demonstration on decorating confections with fondant.
“It’s kind of like a pliable playdough for cakes,” she said. “It gives you the look of a smooth textured cake. It’s not about making fondant, it will be about using commercially made fondant to decorate and make creative cakes. Just tips and tricks for the everyday, at home baker.”
