Im trying to draw the bob marley lion of Judah pic. I know it's gonna be tricky cuz I can't find an actual stencil for it but once I get the stencil right how do I effectly trace it on to fondant and what sort of surface should I do this on. I'm an extreme beginner but I'm shooting for the stars lol please help me!
I would trace the image you want onto baking paper. Cover your cake in fondant, then place the baking paper image onto the cake, and use a sharp sterile pin to prick the entire outline and details of the drawing through the paper into the fondant. Remove the paper and then pipe over the lines you have created with the pin holes, using royal icing in the colour of your choice.
I personally would not bother creating a stencil with this much detail.
