Lovely cake, wonderful eye popping color to please any little person - but someone really needs to clue me in on Hello Kitty only time I see it is on CC!

What exactly is MMF and is it edible? I have never used anything other than buttercreme icing in making cakes but would like to try new recipes and items to have more variety.

MMF stands for Marshmallow Fondant. Is Fondant made out of marshmallows and powdered sugar. Look up the recipe on this site. Is easy to make and more affordable than buying the fondant. I always add flavor (1 tablespoon) of almond extract or vanilla to my recipe. It tastes really good!

This is DARLING! My great niece would love to have this cake. Did you do the Hello Kitty too? She is so cute.

Your cake is very impressive!! How were you able to create Hello Kitty? Did you use some kind of mold? My 7 year old daughter would love this! Can you give me instructions?

hi tiptop57. Hello Kitty is a very popular character from Japan. If you search under Sanrio, you would see a whole range of characters all very cute.

Thanks, I think I made it about 4 days in advance. I use MMF and have never had a problem with drying or craking. I sometimes use 1/2 gumpaste (wilton's) to the MMF. Always work with Crisco too.
