Duff's Brand of Fondant

Thread Starter 
I was on Ebay today and saw that they have: DUFF GOLDMAN FONDANT CAKE DECORATING CHARM CITY CAKES 2#'s for $10 plus shipping.

I remember when Duff didn't even know you could get colored fondant and now he has his own brand.

I also saw in the clearance aisle a: Ace of Cakes Cake making set for little girls.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised but I was.

I was on the Decopac site awhile ago and Duff has a whole line of products through them. He had kits, fondant, and icing colors.

Weird because on the show, his shelves are lined with Satin Ice!

actually I thought I remember on one episode he had said someone he knows makes the fondant for him...Maybe that's the owner of satin ice.. but I didn't get that impression.

That is odd because I thought I had heard him say that he uses Fondarific brand exclusively now. Might be on the fondarific site not sure.

I saw his fondant in Michaels. They had that along with some texture kits. If anyone has tried it, post a review.

I just noticed it at Michael's today too... I'm curious as to how good it tastes. I like the fact that it comes in many colors, so if you're in a pinch and don't feel like making it... It's really expensive here, though. More than Satin Ice. But at least you can use your coupon at Micheal's!
It says "Buttercream fondant" What exactly does that mean?

I bought the Duff fondant at Michaels. Seems expensive (but you can use the 40% off coupon) for a 2 LB tub but totally worth it. It can do the work of Wilton's 5 LB fondant and it tastes much better. My kids love it!
Anybody try it too? Any comment? My friend told me she couldn't find it in her local Michaels store. May be it is not in all Michaels. Did anyone see it in Joanne or Hobby Lobby?

It tastes like buttercream icing instead of traditional vanilla or MM. I have used the Fondarific product and it works out a heck of alot cheaper than duff's... even if I order and have it shipped from the states and they taste almost the same. It is actually doing decorators a favor really. This is for people who want to play and will become sharply aware of the cost of this profession. Michaels in Canada had it today for 29.95 for 2lbs. The buttercream icing was 27.95. Still.... pretty high even with the coupon considering how much you will need to cover a tier'd cake.... icon_lol.gif

I saw it last week here in Louisiana, and it was only 19.99.... for 2lbs. There was alot of different colors. Have not tried it yet, but want to. I love Satin Ice and the way it taste. They did not have alot of his stuff, just the fondant and some texture plates....

20$ for 2 lbs in the States....30$ for 2 lbs in Canada (Good thing our dollars are nearly even or it would be 50$ for 2 lbs......) I put it back on the shelf as well Snowbuns....that's outrageous....no wonder Wilton doesn't care if there's another brand at Micheal's.....no one can afford to buy it....I worked it out....it would be very close to 75$ to cover an average 3 tier cake in the new wonder Duff fondant... icon_sad.gif
