Wilton White-White Icing Color For Lightening Fondant?
Decorating By ForMyHannah Updated 10 Nov 2010 , 9:15pm by Jaimelt76

Can I use Wilton white-white icing color to lighten fondant? I made the fondant too deep of a blue and need it to be a lighter shade. It says you can use the wilton white with buttercream but I'm not sure about fondant. Or should I just buy more white fondant and mix that in with my colored fondant to make it a lighter shade? Thanks for your help!


Definitely would NOT add the white food coloring to fondant. That stuff is very thick and prone to staying sticky.
As Shaddi says, lighten the fondant by adding in more white fondant.

I made the mistake once of adding the wilton white to fondant and it made the biggest mess. The fondant was garbage as their was no saving it. So I would just add more white fondant to it to make it lighter. I did buy some americolor white and have had luck with that. HTH
