In "Part 1 of 2: How to Model a Realistic Male Fondant Topper Face Timelapse Tutorial", you will learn to use reference points from facial elements you create to make a more realistic male (or any) topper. The video begins with elements of modeling a basic realistic face from my previous "How to Model a Realistic Female Fondant Topper Face Timelapse Tutorial", only I describe such elements in a bit more detail.

In this cake topper, you will also learn to create a smiling fondant face with additional facial details to make it more realistic, using reference points as you create the face.

Things you will learn in this timelapse fondant face tutorial:

1. What you should expect in handling the fondant when adding
Tylose to it and when to know it is ready for use.
2. How to more easily roll a piece of fondant into a smooth ball (this process works especially when adding Tylose to the fondant as it tends to dry out faster).
3. Using reference points in elements created throughout the process to aid in modeling a realistic male (or any) cake topper.
4. How to prevent a fondant figure from drying out when working on it.
5. Correct facial elements when they are distorted from handling the fondant.
