Fondant seems to be the "thing" in cake decorating. It creates a much smoother look, can be formed into figures similar to using play dough, cut like pie crust dough....yet most fondant doesn't have a pleasant flavor for some reason. Years ago I found a recipe on CakeCentral's website for marshmallow fondant, used it, and had great results with usability and flavor! Here is a link to those results: Halloween 2009. I used it again on one of my daughter's birthday cakes in 2010. The fondant covering the cake is marbled with food coloring. The letters are cut out with a cutter set. Everything else made of fondant was formed by hand.
I'll be using this recipe again this week for a baby shower cake, and below is the link to the recipe for this fondant. Don't get frustrated with it; read the comments below the recipe to find tips from other users. It requires quite a bit of kneading, but the results are very nice!
