I missed my final cake class and I'm a little embarrassed to call my teacher and ask her, I figured I knew how to do it on my own, buy now thinking about it since I have to put the dowels, is it with the buttercream icing and then you put the fondant over the whole cake, or do you roll the fondant over each layer and then put the dowels?

Each layer, then the dowels, the seams are hidden when you fill decorate, plus there is a weight disbursement with each layer instead of push-down weight of total wrap fondant

Im not a cake decorater but I do watch the food network. Im pretty sure you put the buttercream icing on the layer of cake then cover the layer in fondant then put in the dowels. Then do the same for the following layers.
I hope I've helped you. Best of luck

Buttercream the tiers first, insuring it is smooth. Chill till set.Place the 4 dowels accordingly to support next layer, buttercream the inserts. Place fondant over each tier, trim and proceed with next layer.

You put fondant over each layer (after the butter cream icing), insert the dowels, and then assemble the cake and decorate.
