How to Make Vintage Style Petits Fours | Less Sweet!

Fondant Fancies which also known as Petits fours are fanciful cakes traditionally eaten at teatime.
In fact, the name Petit Four translate as “small oven”
They often have multiple thin layers of cake; with a fruit glaze in the middle, covered in fondant or icing and usually adorned with intricate decorations.
My iced version of Petits Fours is a cotton sponge cake with vanilla buttercream in the middle and covered in white chocolate.
I found that buttercream and white chocolate is a great alternative for those who find the fruit glaze and fondant or icing slightly too sweet.
I hope that you will enjoy the recipe :)
