Marshmallow Fondant - How Long Can It Last?
Decorating By Tfaye Updated 3 Jul 2011 , 6:36pm by AnitaK

I made some Marshmallow Fondant last week and I have some left over. I want to use the left overs for my daughter's birthday cake that I will be making July 10th because it already has color added to it.
I read that MM fondant can last a long time in the refrigerator. Can someone that has experience with this (not just reading about it) tell me how long it will last in the frig?
Thanks in advance

I made a batch of MMF and it laster, FOREVER! I didn't refrigerate mine though, my recipe had nothing perishable in it. Wrap it tight and lightly coat with crisco before wrapping and I it will last for you no problem, in my opinion. HTH!


Yes, marshmallows do have an expiration date. The Fondant can "last" for a very long time but the problem is bacteria. I wouldn't eat it after a couple of weeks but I did try freezing some and it seemed to be o.k., although I didn't try working with it. I've heard/read
conflicting info about whether its o.k. to refrigerate or freeze it.
