I personally use this constantly to brighten cookies. But I've got a much simpler - less untidy way: 1) Melt marshmallow & water in microwave 2) Place 1/2 sugar in mixing bowl making well in center 3) Pour marshmallows in center of well & mix with dough hook 4)continue kneading & add remainder of sugar. then continue all of those other recipe.
lI ove this fondant, givs a nice smooth product. Something which I actually do differently is use my mixer with hook attachment. After melting the marshmallows and water, I pour it within my mixer about 1/4 Crisco and begin mixing, if I am likely to color it' add some gel coloring now. After thats mixed i start adding the sugar. About 4 cups first, then another 2 then remove and knead the remainder. A great deal simpler and do not finish track of pink hands from food coloring.
Part 1. I have not made or eaten fondant. I seen line, read recipes, viewed videos. And also, since I'm not a neat prepare I had been just a little nervous using everything powdered sugar. I made the decision which i would begin by mixing the marshmallow and sugar within the bowl. It got to the stage that I needed to transform it to knead around the counter. I had been doing very good until I acquired over confident and put into much sugar. I finished up requiring to become vacuumed off. However I were able to make something which I believe is fondant. I do not know what texture I am opting for really. I have got dryish playdough. I greased it and set it inside a foodsaver canister (saw that online). I'll be while using fondant on the cake in five days. I'll alter it inside a couple of days. Incidentally, don't put on fuzzy slippers when you're causeing this to be.
Part 2. (March 3rd and fourth) I didn't remember to say which i was making fondant because I've got a Cricut Cake. I desired my cake around the fifth and so i made the decision which i would start practicing around the 3rd. With the aid of Tinkerbell I made the decision that my fondant ended up being to dry. Since I Have were built with a time crunch and could not begin again I stop a bit, added a couple of drops water and nuked it until it had been slightly warm. I kneaded water in also it would be a little sticky. Which was ok since i wanted beige and brown fondant. And So I kneaded in certain cacao to obtain the colors I needed. Everything was searching good. It folded out nicely and that i feed it towards the Cricut. No go. I am sure it could have been acceptable for other uses. It had been to soft for that machine. I panicked as it were (or 5) and appreciated a relevant video I saw online. A lady used marshmallow fondant but she allow it to dry overnight around the cutting mats. And So I filled my cutting mats along with a couple of cutting boards and allow them to dry overnight. The following day it had been perfect. My DS was thrilled together with his cake and my DD can't watch for her birthday.
I'd heard that fondant does not taste good. This may. The plain, light chocolate and chocolate (my personal favorite). I'll certainly make it can.
