By debm1 About This Recipe: This is my recipe for Vanilla Marshmallow Fondant. It's very smooth to work with, drapes beautifully, and tastes somewhat like candy corn. I've been asked for the recipe, so I figured I'd finally write it down and share it. It's color is a perfect match to my homemade butter cream. It is not a bright white...more an ivory. It has more ingredients than many recipes, might take a little longer to make, but it is worth it. Enjoy! ….This recipe makes about 3 lb. 13 oz. fondant. Recipe Doubles well.     Ingredients:   1/3 cup -... read more

Posted by ycknits I've seen comments in forum entries about how to make white chocolate ganache using sour cream instead of whipping cream. I searched every which way, but could not come up with the ratio. So, after digging around on the web and finding small quantity recipes, here is what I came up with for a larger batch. It doesn't even require measuring the ingredients. I prefer this recipe to standard white chocolate ganache because it is not so sweet (and so delicious that you will want to eat it with a... read more
