My first time.
Fondant is a medium I have never worked with before. I was fascinated by it and thought it looked easy enough. Huh? What 'first time' did you think I was talking about? Alright, alright, get your head back in the game. Do you know what fondant is? Basically it is sugar and water boiled to soft-ball stage and then whipped to the right consistency. Then it is rolled out like playdough. It is usually used to cover wedding cakes and it is the filling inside the Cadbury creme egg, if you have ever had one. But, for me, going through all that time of measuring, boiling, getting the right consistency is just too much for me. So I found a recipe for Marshmallow Fondant. Super easy, super fast and messy, which I think is fun. Anyway, I used it to make a trial cake for an upcoming birthday party where the boy wanted Spongebob. Since I was new to the whole thing, I figured it was a good idea to make a smaller version first and work with it to see how things flowed. I made some mistakes and learned alot, but all and all, I think it worked out great. What do you think?
