Directions
Rolled Fondant from Scratch,You will love this recipe. It is time consuming with lots of ingredients, but the end result is fabulous. I make large batches of it, wrap tightly and store in my pantry (don’t refrigerate.) It took me hundreds of batches to get the consistency just right so follow the recipe exactly. My favorite is to flavor with orange or lemon extract. The taste is really good.,I don’t know what went wrong here, but this recipe turned out pretty awful. When I added the cooked mixture to the sugar, it was too dry and crumbly and couldn’t possibly be worked into a dough. My mom ended up adding more water to it to make it workable, but it was still very hard to use and put on a cake. We ended up using a Wilton recipe instead.,This was very good, it was my first time making fondant and I thought it was pretty simple. Ladies who have made and tasted fondant before said this was the best they had tasted. It draped beautiful on the cake. I followed your directions exactly and I will make this again. Thanks for sharing all your hard work to figure out a perfect fondant recipe.
