Today we're going to be talking about fondant
While baking my nieces birthday cake, which lets be honest was
looking a little lumpy, we decided to try our hand at making fondant.
You Need:
1 Bag of marshmallows
1 Bag of icing sugar
tap water
Put about half the bag of marshmallows in a large container, and
microwavein 3o second bursts until they're gooey - similar consistency
as though you were making rice crispies.
Once you have the desired constancy stir in 4 cups - use more if needed - of icing
sugar kneed until well folded together, add 3-4 table spoons of water,
mix again.
Once everything is combined you should have a similar feel to play doh,
do not touch it to much you can over work, and crumble it.
If you want coloured fondant before you take it out of the bowl work in
your colours.When you are done put down some icing sugar, and roll out
your marshmallow fondant.
Review Time!
This is great! it works flawlessly, its quick to make, it costs less than store bought,
and in my opinion it tastes better than store bought fondant; however, it is very
sticky if you roll it too thin, do not get it on your clothes, and always make sure
all working surfaces are sufficiently covered in whatever you choose to put down
- Icing sugar, corn starch - It will stick to the rolling pin if rolled too thin - But it
works great, and covers just the same as store bought. I really enjoyed making it
and using it on my desserts.
Thats all for now 😊
