We do not use pre-made cake fondant, instead we hand make all of our fondants. We share our recipes so our clients know exactly what they are getting. There are three types of fondant icing that I have discovered through my journey of cake decorating. Marshmallow, Rolled, and Butter-cream. Our first how to make fondant recipe is the marshmallow fondant. This is a very easy to make recipe and is our most popular.
How to make fondant very easy, all you do is put the marshmallows in a microwave safe bowl, add the water, and put it into the microwave for 2 minutes. Stir marshmallows making sure it’s all melted, then add your flavoring and powdered sugar to your liking. Knead dough on a powdered sugar surface and keep adding powdered sugar to make dough less sticky and more workable.
There you have it! Allow your fondant to set up overnight covered. Before you use, microwave for 30 seconds and knead until smooth and pliable. Use fondants to help cakes come to life. Wedding cakes are not the only use for fondant. We are making fondant for birthday cakes, bridal shower cakes, baby shower cakes and others.

By using fondant, we can integrate art into your cake creating that special look limited only by your imagination. Our second how to make fondant recipe is the rolled fondant.
Mix water and gelatin and let stand for 5 minutes. Heat in microwave about 30 seconds. Add shortening and stir until melted. Pour into glycerin and glucose mixture. Add flavoring. Pour into the powdered sugar and fold until blended. Knead the fondant until smooth and workable. When kneading and rolling fondant, be sure to use a powdered sugar work surface to keep fondant from sticking. This type of rolled fondant is the most time consuming but it tastes great! My kids love eating it without it being on a cake.
It also makes great dough for children to play with as mine do. It tastes great and works just like edible play dough for kids. This is how to make fondant fun! Our third how to make fondant recipe is the rolled butter-cream fondant. Mix shortening, syrup and flavorings together.
Add powdered sugar one cup at a time. If you want to make a chocolate rolled butter cream fondant just add ½ cup of cocoa to sugar before mixing. My favorite tasting fondant would be the regular rolled fondant just because it has a more buttery flavor because I use butter flavored shortening and butter flavoring. The buttercream fondant is shinier and is used mostly for wedding cakes.
The Marshmallow is easier to make. I like using all 3, but when I make your custom cake, it will be to your liking, you choose the fondant cake decorating type we will use. We appreciate input from our visitors and welcome new ideas, pictures and special recipes. Comment on how to make fondant here.
Coloring fondant is always fun to me. I love to paint and see color go on a wall. Fondant is just the same. I love to see a colorful cake. This example is how to make black fondant but I have made pink, blue, green, and some nice pastels. Just add the packet of fondant powder color you want to warm marshmallows and get that color every time. If I'm just too busy they also sell every color ready make and have the best pricing I've seen on fondant, just saying.
