Brilliant! Fondant making is a hobby of mine.

Hi I am fairly new to baking and decorating. This recipe sounds awsome - can I add cocoa powder for a chocolate fondant?

It sounds more like Royal icing or American Buttercream than it does Fondant. However, with all the rave reviews, I think I will be giving this a chance.

My first go at fondant. Thanks Wendy, this was so simple and easy. I had a play and made a practice cake. Tomorrow will be a double tier Thomas the Tank Engine cake for my 3 year old. Yikes!!!

Disaster resulted from my attempt to use this recipe. Maybe a person making their first fondant really ought to use one of the cooked recipes or one of the recipes calling for glycerin. At first I thought it was going relatively well though even with the fondant in a ball it had hairline cracks. I rolled the fondant between waxed paper on a marble pastry "board." I used the rolling pin to help delicately lift it over the cake and began to drape it over the cake. I really thought the entire endeavor was going to be successful. Then the fondant rapidly began to crack in multiple places. Hairline cracks became splits than ran like pantyhose. The fondant broke up into pieces and slid off the cake landing around it in a heaping mess. Just enough was left behind to make the cake look unspeakably horrible. After this first and only experience I may be done with fondant forever.

I haven't try it, im sure this recipe will really works!

I have viewed many fondant recipes before, but this one is easy, quick and tasty at the same time. Thank you.

Was easy to make, but even when you knead it for about an hour, it still kinda crumbles at the edges. Good for small figures like snowmen.

Great recipe! Went well with 24 dozen cupcakes I am making for the 4th of July. Mixes well with powdered food color. Saved me a lot of time and money!!!!

It was super easy to make, as others said, but I had to actually add powdered sugar to make it useable. Also, when I was making cool little roses to put on top of my cupcakes with it I had to keep it cold otherwise it was to melty. Worked good enough for my purposes though! All the other recipes I looked at were way to complicated so this one was nice. :)

U R an IDOL TO ME NOW! Wow. I live in Bangladesh and corn syrup, shortening and fondants are not at all available! AWSUM!!! I cant wait to try this!!!! U r a hero!!

After reading this recipe, I had the fondant made in under 2 minutes. It was perfect. Thank you.

I am so excited to try this recipe. Almost all the fondant recipes I found online needs corn syrup (something that I can't find in stores here in France). I am so glad to have found this recipe. I will try this out for my little girl's first birthday. It's gonna be my first time to make a fondant cake. Wish me luck!

Very simple to use, if stuck to the margins carefully. A little hard to color but not that hard, the smaller the bowl the better. I look forward to making a ton of things with this. Note that it does harden quickly so either mix it up a second time or form and break out the spatula to move it. Hardens outside, not in the fridge like some users suggested

Excellent recipe! I used a bit of corn syrp and upped the powdered sugar. Looks awesome
