At :27 seconds in, you see Robin using a long spatula to smooth the sides as she turns the cake. Have you tried that method? Then let it harden in the refrigerator. Let me know if that works for you.

Maybe someone can translate this for you. After cake has cooled, she puts a thin layer of buttercream frosting on it. It is important that it is applied smoothly, for bumps may show or tear the fondant. She then puts it into the refrigerator so the frosting will harden (1+ hour). When cake is ready, start rolling out the fondantnot before, because it will dry out too quickly and wont bend & form to cake as easily. Hope this answers your question! =) I am sorry, but I do not speak Spanish. Maybe someone can translate this for you.
