Marshmallow Fondant

This Marshmallow Fondant recipe that i'm sharing with you is easy-to-make, very delicious, and great to work with. This homemade recipe produces smooth, sweet rolled fondant that is great on cakes, cupcakes and cookies. It can be molded in any shapes at all. I'v used this recipe for a long time now and it is worlds better than any prepackaged fondant you can buy.

Ingredients:
- 150g white mini marshmallows
- 300 gms Icing sugar (more if needed)
- water
- food colour
- oil
- food wrap

Put marshmallows in oven-safe bowl and microwave for 30 seconds.

Open microwave, add 2 table spoons water and microwave again for 30 seconds.

Keep repeating this till the marshmallows are all melted and smooth.

I used white and pink coloured marshmallows because i wanted my fondant red, so it wont really matter if i melted pink marshmallows. 

Add food color to the hot melted marshmallow mixture and stir. 

In a large bowl, put the icing sugar and make a well in the middle. Pour the melted marshmallow mixture in the icing sugar well and grease your hands with oil before you start to knead. 

 It usually take me about 10 minutes to get a firm smooth elastic ball that will not tear when applying to the cake. It is best if you let it sit, double wrap, overnight. 

I keep my fondant wrapped, in air-tight container. If your fondant is too hard or tears while applying to the cake, you can add a little water and knead till its smooth and soft again.
