well, we don't know how you made it. here's mine:

1-cup miniature marshmallows
1 Tablespoon water
A few drops of flavoring
About 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cups confectioners sugar

Place the marshmallows in a large microwave safe glass container with the water. Gently melt to a smooth mixture, removing after a few seconds to stir. Add powdered sugar a little at a time until you cannot stir anymore in. Knead in more sugar until you have very soft pliable dough.

You can use this dough immediately as the cornstarch in the marshmallows helps to stabilize the fondant. If you do not intend to use it immediately, then leave it a little softer.

If you use colored marshmallows youll have a nice pastel colored fondant but you can color the white with food color.

Add more sugar if you want it more firm. Can yo explain a little more about the flowers? Did you mean buttercream flowers? Real flowers? The fondant started melting or the flowers? Give us some more detail and we can help you out.
