I k[nead] homeade fondant

I've been obsessed with fondant since I saw it's beautiful satin finish for the first time. However, I haven't always loved it's taste. Don't get me wrong...I am one of those people that eats fondants at wedding receptions off the cakes. But, still it has to be good fondant and not everyone makes it so desirable.

I've made a few fondant-covered cakes in the past. I've had so much fun and have always been happy with the finished product. I've always used Wilton's Ready-to-Use White Rolled Fondant because I wasn't ready to approach making my own.

A while back I found a marshmallow fondant recipe on whatscookingamerica.net., courtesy of Peggy Weaver. Well, yesterday a friend and I made it and LOVED it! It's basically a mixture of water, marshmallow and powdered sugar.

I will make this over and over again! Thanks Peg!

Words to describe the recipe:
*Tasty
*EASY
*Marshmellowy
*Pliable
*YUMMY
