It's no Ace of Cakes....

but I think I did a pretty good job.



This is my first fondant cake. I made two batches of marshmallow fondant. It is so easy.

Marshmallow fondant

16 oz bag of marshmallows
2 1/2 Tbsp of water
2 lbs of C&H powdered sugar
Lots of Crisco

Put the marshmallows in a bowl and add the water on top. Microwave and stir in 30 second intervals until the marshmallows are melted and smooth. Put a lot of crisco down on your kneading surface. Pour the melted marshmallows on to your surface. Dump the powdered sugar on top of the marshmallows. Grease your hands well with the Crisco and knead together. It takes about 5 mins to get it all kneaded together. When it is all kneaded together, pat it into a ball, coat it in Crisco, wrap it in saran wrap, and refrigerate for at least three hours.

When you are ready to use it, microwave for 20-30 seconds and roll it out.
