Fondant Cakes
Help making fondant for cakes and cupcakes?
I am interested in making decorative cupcakes and have some recipes from american books and websites.However I live in Ireland and a lot of the recipes involve fondant.You can not buy fondant here so does anyone have a recipe for making the fondant????Any recipe would be helpful, I will try them all.Thanks
would I be better off to use icing???
you can make your own outta marshmallows (has a different taste from the store bought fondant)
Marshmallow fondant
1 cup mini marshmallows
1 tbsp water
1 1/2- 1 3/4 cup powder sugar
Place marshmallows in a standard 1 cup measuring cup and push down and pack them in. Place in a microwave safe bowl and add the water. Put in the microwave for about 20 seconds. Just long enough for them to soften and puff up. Take out and stir with a spoon until it is combined well. At this point it looks kind of soupy. Then add the sugar and mix and fold until all is incorporated and it is no longer sticky. I take it out of the bowl when it gets to the point where most of the sugar is incorporated and I knead it in my hands. This takes roughly about 5-7 minutes. Take a fondant roller or a regular rolling pin and roll out just as you would Wilton’s fondant. You can get this fondant almost paper thin and it also repairs well. It’s cheap, easy to work with, and tastes great too.
