Hey Guys,
A few months back I posted my Ultimate MMF and Ultimate Choc MMF recipes. I've gotten some really great feedback from those of you have have tried the recipes.
I have a few updates: I recently added 1/2 tsp Creme Royal instead of the 1/2 tsp. Princess Cake and Cookie Emulsion and the taste was simply awesome! In fact, I think this is the best flavor yet.
Also, I was finally brave enough to use my KA and dough hook to mix my fondant and WOW, I never knew mixing fondant could be so easy! I'll never knead by hand again. I was able to complete a batch in 20 minutes in my KA vs. 30-35 minutes when I mix by hand.
Also, I have found that if you take your batch, slice it into 3 hunks and stick in microwave for 20 secs or so just before rolling, you will have a super smooth texture that is easy to roll out.
Lastly, some of you were asking how many cakes will one batch cover. Well, I can easily cover a double layer 6 inch and 8 inch with one batch and still have a tad left over. I covered a 5 tier square wedding cake this weekend w/ four batches.
Happy baking!!!!
Rhonda
How long does your fondant last if you don't need to use an entire batch. I have been making the small batches of MMF, but would like to try your recipe.
Many thanks for your update - this is just to ask when you divide the batch and microwave it for about 20 seconds, at what power is that? )eg 10%power in a 600 w microwave?)

I've always used mine within a day or so, but I would imagine it lasts as long as most MMF recipes. Just keep it wrapped tightly and it should have the same shelf life as the others.

I just checked and I have a 1200W microwave. What I typically do is take the block of fondant, divide it into thirds and put it in the microwave for 15-20 intervals until soft. If you only need half or a portion of the batch, I recommend 5-8 second intervals until soft. I have found theat this technique gives you an incredibly easy fondant to roll with no tearing/streching, etc.

What is Creme Royal?
Creme Royal is a deliciousd flavor emulsion that you can use with, or, in place of vanilla extract. I use it in all my buttercream recipes and I have started using it in my mmf. You can get it from sugarcraft.

A couple of questions... Why isn't this mmf recipe listed in the "frosting" section of recipes under 'fondant'? I just happened upon it in the "white cakes" section. Also, I made a reg. mmf recipe (i.e. 16 oz. marshmellows, water, and powdered sugar). Can I still add the remaining ingredients for Rhonda's recipe? Also, has anyone down sized this recipe? If so, could I get the proportions? Thanks.
Thanks Rhonda!!! I've been making your recipe too and I just love it! I made another batch last night for a cake for this weekend. I'll try the microwave trick. Best MMF recipe by far!!
Thanks for the feedback. I'll be sure to keep you all posted as I try different variations!
I can't find the recipe... 
...would someone help me out?

This is such a great recipe... it needs to be put with the fondant recipes. 
I know others are looking for it too. Can anyone help me out with my other q's? Thanks.

Gretta,
I guess I didn't realize I had placed it under the wrong section. Does anyone know how I can move it?
Many thanks Rhonda for the info re power setting for microwave!

Thanks Rhonda, I was having problems with the recipe I was using - I can't wait to try yours!
Hi Rhonda - I used your MMF for my first ever fondant cake this past weekend and it was wonderful! Easy to work with and had no problems whatsoever.
Can you add the tips you are mentioning to the original recipe? That way they will be easy to find and remember the next time I make it! Thanks!!

Yes, I actually went back and added the tips to the recipe. I'll have to check it to make sure it posted!
Thanks for the feedback,
Rhonda
Rhonda, just wondering if you use this in place of all fondant? For instance, would you also use this recipe to make flowers, drapes, figures, etc. as you would regular fondant? Do you add gumtex to it as you would fondant for making roses, etc? Thanks!

Yes, I use this for all my fondant. When I want to make bows/flowers, etc., I add gumtex.
Rhonda
I LOVE your MMF. I think that it is wonderful! I always get it sooo smooth, it is great. Thank you so much for sharing with us all!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How much gum tex do you add when making your full recipe to make bows, flowers, etc?
I have only added gumtex to portions of the mmf; usually about 1 tsp per 12 oz of mmf. I have a food scale so I weigh the fondant.
Rhonda
