I made my second cake with MMF and boy oh boy did it taste delicious. I am about to make my 3rd cake (staked cake), this weekend using only MMF I am going to pre-make at least 5 color out of the MM. I simply love this stuff. Keep up the delicious work..!! Yummo!

I am new to cake decorating and using fondant. I made a similar MMF recipe and have no problems when placing on a square cake. However, everytime I try to place on a round cake I get horrible creases on the sides of the cake. What am I doing wrong?

I love working with Marshmallow Fondant, You shouldn’t refridgerate it, and it can be stored in a ball for up to 2 months, just wrap in saran wrap and place in an air tight container. You can also wrap in saran wrap and place in a ziploc bag, hope this helps with some questions!! I like to make mine up ahead of time and store it, I also make all kinds of colors, adding my color to the melted marshmallows before pouring into the confectioners sugar well.

Oh Yea, I found this recipe elsewhere online. I LOVE THIS RECIPE. it tastes so yummy and is so easy to make and use. I like to store it in a greased container, plastic. I’ve left it out for a week already and it’s sat out really well. Plus I also refrigerated for a few hours since I had used mousse as my filling. I love it.

Hi Chris
Here in Australia we don’t use buttercream under fondant, we use chocolate ganache. White chocolate for white cakes and milk or dark chocolate for other cakes. We ganache the cake and then let it set hard overnight. Hope this helps!
Cheers

I’m all new to cake decorating and I would like to try decorating my cake with fondant.

Other than buttercream , can i spread chocolate fudge on top of the cake and let it harden before spreading the fondant on top of it ?

Or the only way to go is spread a thin layer of buttercream ?

Would appreciate your help.
