with everyone. I made by first batch of Rhondas MMF the other night icon_biggrin.gif Now I understand what everyone is raving about!!! It was definately challenging to mix (i don't think I greased my hands well enough). But once I got it out of the bowl - it went great!! It was so easy to roll out and cover my cake with, I think it only took 5 minutes from start to finish, after I let it rest overnight of course. I don't know how to attach a photo, but it's the purple 8" round in my photos. I just wanted to experiment so the cake is nothing spectacular - sorry this is so long icon_redface.gif I'm just so excited thumbs_up.gif

I agree with you! Rhonda's Ultimate MMF is awesome! I have only made two batches so far but it takes me closer to 30 minutes with all the sifting! I use Creme Boquet flavoring instead of the one called for in the recipe and it is great. I get mine at my local cake decorating shop and it is made by Parrishes I believe.

I also just first used that recipe about 2 weeks ago. It was my first time using any kind of fondant on a cake, but this was really easy and tasted great. It took me a little longer than 5 minutes, but as I said, it was my first time EVER using anything other than buttercream. I think it turned out pretty well though. (It's the Elmo cake in my photos.)

I didn't mean to say it took 5 minutes to MAKE the fondant icon_surprised.gif . That took a little longer , I just meant that it was so much quicker to cover my cake with. icon_biggrin.gif

Lol! I guess I read that wrong. Rolling the MMF out and covering a cake with it is pretty quick, the part that I have trouble with is coloring the darn stuff! I haven't tried to add the coloring when I am making it, I have only kneaded it in endlessly icon_smile.gif Anyone have any other tips for coloring fondant?

indigojods, someone had mentioned here to add the coloring to the marshmallows right after they are melted - if you want the whole batch the same color. Otherwise I guess you have to knead. That's how I've been doing it. Any other methods would be welcome!

Glad you are so excited about the recipe. The chocolate is great too. I used Rhonda's MMF on cookies and purses for a party and the guests ate it. They thought it was very good also. Your cake looks so pretty and smooth.

I roll fondant slightly thinner than 1/8" for cookies, and use the cookie cutter to cut out the fondant shape. My cookies have a sugar glaze so I brush the tops with water before attaching the fondant. I then stretch the fondant so it covers the entire top surface of the cookie (have to stretch as my cookie slightly expands during baking).

Some people cut out the fondant shapes while baking cookies and immediately place them on top right after the cookies come out of the oven. The steam from baking glues the fondant on the cookies.

I never would have thought to put fondant on cookies like that. Thanks for the idea, I'll have to try it sometime.

You can use ant flavor you want in these recipes, Ive used almond, lemon, raspberry. I'm sure you could use pepermint or lime or whatever you have. The princess or creme bouquet is what alot of people use, but it isn't a REQUIRED part of the recipe-in that it won't turn out if you use somethiing else.
