Let's talk Fondant.....

Fondant... That sometimes thick gross layer of chewy sugar on top of cakes that usually gets pealed off and left on the side of your plate... Well I don't like it! At least that version.

Awhile back I started doing research on how to make my own, in hopes that it would taste better and I wouldn't have to buy it.

After hours of research .... Reading recipes, watching YouTube and actually testing it out... I finally came up with the best version that works for me... And it actually tastes Good! It happens to be a Marshmallow Fondant!

It takes marshmallows...vanilla...tons of sugar... And kneading... lots and lots of kneading! Did I mention kneading?


The result... Defiantly worth it!

This was my daughters 4th Birthday cake.

-Strawberry cake(with over 1lb of strawberries) with a layer of chocolate ganache, covered in chocolate buttercream, then covered in homemade Fondant.

-The cupcakes were chocolate with vanilla buttercream. Decorated with Oreo sunflowers and M&m ladybugs!


I absolutely love working with fondant! I think it can become something beautiful... And now that it can taste good.. Well we definitely have a winner!
