fondant and cream cheese icing

Can I assemble a 2 tiered (10" and 12") wedding cake (3 layers with white chocolate cream cheese frosting) covered in fondant 2 days before the wedding? I am mother of the bride and would like to have as much time as possible. Can fondant be refrigerated?

I don't suggest it
by: PegW

I don't suggest it at all. There is a food chemistry problem that often happens. Literally puddles of sugar water on the cake plate. The cake tries to soak up the water and gets soggy. Then because there is no under structure under the fondant it starts to droop and get what looks like love handles just above the cake plate. Not pretty at all.

Refridgerate fondant?
by: Anonymous

CREAM CHEESE SHOULD BE REFRIGERATED BUT FONDANT WILL BECOME A STICKY MESS IF REFRIGERATED. AS IT WARMS TO ROOM TEMP., THE CONDENSATION WILL LEAVE IT STICKY.
