I make cakes for friends/family/co-workers as a hobby and completely agree that the Wilton fondant is horrible. I started making my own marshmallow fondant, which as Hello Bella indicated is a pain and messy. Its very time consuming very easy to mess it up by adding too much powdered sugar. So when I found a small local wedding shop looking for things for my upcoming wedding that also had half of a store of cake supplies I was in heaven and saw the Satin Ice there. I was really afraid to try it because of the experience with wilton and the price (its a little more expensive where I am then indicated in your post). But I decided to suck it up because I was making a cake and already had gone through two batches of marshmallow fondant that didn't turn out. And I was so exciteded when I tore off a little piece and found that it tasted just the same as the marshmallow fondant. With your suggestions I will be trying the Fondx and Fondarific as well!

This helps me out a ton, as I'm looking to make my daughter's first birthday cake in 2 weeks. The only fondant I've ever tried is the Wilton pre-made kind, and I agree, it is terrible!! As my sister said, "It tastes like something you would patch up a wall with." I'm going to hunt down some Fondarific. Thanks so much! Thank you for the helpful info!

When they call, we go through pointers on how to stack cakes, as well as design and decoration ideas. If you need help, please contact me!

I've always made the "marshmallow fondant" from scratch, but for a friends cake this weekend I'm considering just giving in and buying some pre-made. It's such a pain to make, and sooo messy! I think I will be trying Wiltons, but only because the cake I'm making is a fake and will not be eaten! Thanks for the info and first hand tasting recommendations!
