Easy way to create a continuous fondant ribbon is to roll a small piece of fondant into a thin regular snake as long as the cake’s circumference. Then flatten it with a rolling pin making sure it is smooth and have equal thickness and width as desired. (Not too thick and not too thin.) Then use a long thin edged knife to cut the edges to make a ribbon size fondant. You may opt to use a knife cutter with decorative edges. Wrap the ribbon around the cake’s edge, gently press into cake, and crimp as desired.To conceal rough edges between the fondant-covered cake layers, and for a more professional appearance, create a decorative border around the cake’s edges and between the tiers.

In making your cake, properly cover a cake with fondant and not to forget to avoid those annoying wrinkles and folds.
You may also use a really good crusting butter cream icing, you can smooth it so that it is faux fondant in appearance. Then once the icing is smoothed and dry, you can go ahead and add your continuous fondant ribbon by using either a dot of butter cream or clear corn syrup as a glue! Works great. If you are not using a crusting butter cream, then just apply your ribbon as the butter cream is wet.

Good luck in making a gorgeously fondant ribbon -decorated cake!♥

lay the fondant out and use a piece of heavy string or twine to cut it so it will be straight...measure on one end how wide it should me and mark a small dot then the other end....line up the string/twine on both ends and pull down firmly...this should give you perfect edge results...otherwise you can purchase a fondant ribbon cutter but i dont like the results as well

Use a pasta maker (hand crank or electric) using the lasagne setting. That's what pro-chefs are doing these days to save time. A picture of one below.
