No, No, No.....you never use "heat"/"steam" for a transfer or it will melt. You only need the heat of your hand.
You use the steamer to add shine too your fondnat covered cake or fondant/gumpaste flowers.

i have a travelers steamer too, i got it long time ago but i didn't use it coz it's not powerful enough for steaming clothes, so you think i can use steamer on chocolate cake transfer? thanx for the info June.

June and Gail, I don't know if it works on dried covered fondant cakes (because I don't have a steamer) but I have steamed completely dried figures and flowers before and it gives them that nice shiny look, so I don't know why you couldn't do it on a cake covered in fondant that has already dried.

Good question galidink. I don't think it really matters, but I will try it both ways. Practicing for the cake I am making for my nephew's wedding in the spring. When I do it will cover 2 dummies, let one "dry", and do the other right away. Try & remember to send you a post with the results. :0)
