Wow, did not realize fondant was basically PS and marshmallow. That being the case, why is it necessary to store it in the refrigerator? Do/Have not really used it, as I always thought it was yucky, but this is changing my mine, i am thinking you could add a flavor to this in lieu of some water. Would that be correct? Thank you.

I had old marshmallows and they were all different sizes. Was able to make a half batch. At first I thought it didn’t turn out because it was really breaking and had no stretch. Thought the old mallows had the best of me. I added a little glycerin to get the stretch back and kneaded in green for a ninja turtle cake after only letting it rest an hour. This is the first round cake I have covered that did not have creases all over the bottom and it is smooth with no breaks. Yeah! So thanks for the recipe going to try and use it again with fresh mallows next time with hopefully the same out come. The birthday is tomorrow, thanks a bunch for saving me a trip to the store.

In reply to Dee. Hi Dee, Most people suggest letting it sit over night. If I make little figrues, I usually don't wait, but if I need to cover a cake, I do let it rest overnight.

Does the fondant have to sit overnight before you can actually roll it out and use it, or can it be used immediately?

In reply to Marisol. Hi Marisol! One pound of powdered or confectioners' sugar is 4 cups. :)
