One of the simplest techniques for decorating with fondant is to create cut-outs. Fondant shapes can be applied to lay at on the surface of a treat or dried so that they hold their shape when used as a topper.

What a fun project for your sweetie! The directions are pretty straight forward. A hint on the fondant is that it is like working with pastry dough. You roll it out from the center and not the edges to get the fondant an even thickness which helps to avoid tears in the fondant.
The fondant heart cutouts are easy to do. It is much like cutting cookies! A BIG suggestion on using the 37 Piece Alphabet & Number Cut-Outs is to put the cutters in the freezer with the fondant pieces to make removing them easy. Some of the tighter letters may require lightly greasing the molds with a little shortening. The fondant lettering pops right out of the frozen molds. Let the pieces come to room temperature before attaching to the cake.
