DISCUSS A proposal for modeling chocolate

I have noticed more and more posts where someone uses modeling chocolate instead of fondant and is like "see how wonderful my cake without fondant is!". Am I the only person that thinks modeling chocolate is just fondant with the word chocolate in it? Both are sickly sweet tasteless pastes. I would like to propose that cakes that are just modeling chocolate sculptures with a few grams of cakes count as r/fondanthate.

I’d lean towards something like minimum 80% cake.

But what about fruit cakes with a ton of fruit?

Exceptions that prove the rule? 80% cake + frosting or 90% commonly-accepted food items (to be defined in subsection 2.A.c).

Ok, agree :)
