Marshmallow Fondant

Okay, so I tried making my own fondant since the stuff is so expensive and tastes horrible. I did today and I think it looks great . . . I have to try to roll it out and everything this weekend sometime (since it needs to rest overnight) and see how I really like it. But for those of you who want to try it, here's a link to the recipe that was recommended to me.

I found it was a lot easier than I thought it would be, so as long as you have about a half hour I would give it a shot. I'm still thinking it might be a bit easier to order my own fondant for the august cake, but I will see how this handles first.

*UPDATE*

Ok, so it rolls out and handles great, but I got a bunch of little hard powdered sugar pieces in it. I think I need to sift it next time. But to be on the safe side, I think I'll go with Satin Ice for the August cake. I'll try marshmallow fondant for Kay's birthday cake maybe. :)

Oh and it tastes GREAT!!
