I loooove the look of fondant when it’s first put on a cake, and before it’s molded to the cake’s shape. It has a fabric quality to it that way. <3

@maracgWilton sells a ready made variety which is pure white, and Kosher (great for vegetarians, such as myself). It is a box, with two 2.5 pound blocks individually wrapped in cellophane. It’s about $22 CDN, so it would probably be under twenty dollars in the USA. It’s readily available at Michael’s as well was Wal-Mart Superstores.
@maracg She’s using …
@maracg She’s using buttercream, which is nothing like what you would buy from a store. Wilton’s website offers an excellent recipe for buttercream.
Buying ready-made fondant is so much more efficient than making it from scratch.

I was wondering if the white paste you put just before the fondant is regular vanilla icing? and where can I get fondant ready to use???Is it difficult to find in the us??if so….how can I make it???and what is that thing that you use to colour it?
