Is this possible to make? Can I add Malibu Rum to the MMF instead of water, or flavoring?? I am making a Malibu Rum flavored and shaped/decorated to look like the bottle and I am trying to figure out what to cover it in. I think fondant will look better, but will the 2 flavors mix? HELP please??

Thank you!

You can use any kind of flavoring that you'd like if you're making your own fondant or icing ... I use a variety of flavors ... icon_smile.gif

Excellent that is exactly what I wanted to hear! LOL I've never even used MMF or made it before so this will be a first altogether for me! I'll let you know how it turns out!

Thanks so much for your help!

I just made it yesterday and could not find the brand name marshmellows so I used the stores...the mmf was a little soft as soon as I made it so Ive wrapped it up nicely and it seems to be "setting" well.

I was going to use it to decorate some cookies and to take some to school to show the chefs...It's much cheaper for "training" than fondant...

Does it taste better than fondant though? I've heard horror stories about how awful fondant tastes, I've tasted it once on a wedding cake (someone else made) and I thought it was terrible too. The cake was pretty, but if it tastes awful then what good is it?? lol

it just tastes like a sweet marshmellow...without all the air.

that's just plain without any flavoring.
