Marshmallow fondant to decorate a cake

My sister Charlotte was 9 years (9 years! Already!!) 2 weeks ago and for the occasion, I threw myself into making the marshmallow fondant to decorate the cake.

What the fudge? It is a sugar paste that has a texture similar to the dough that is rolled like a fine paste to cover the cake (wedding cakes are often covered) or we tinker to make figurines and other decorations. It is surprisingly easy to do ... the fondant I mean ... for decoration, it depends on your talent and / or the time you go to. In my case, as my basic talent in visual arts is limited, I put a lot of time! :)

For the cake Charlotte, I made little penguins and a "puffle" above an igloo cake for my big fan of Club Penguin.


I initially found the recipe based on the site of the Lover desserts.

Ingredients:
1 bag of mini marshmallows (250g)
3 cups (more or less) icing sugar (330 g)
1 tablespoon water tea
Vegetable oil or shortening (do not put in the recipe is to grease your dish and your hands!)

Preparation:
1. Generously oil the inside of a large bowl in the microwave.

2. Put the marshmallows in the bowl and add water. Place marshmallows and melt at once 15 seconds, stirring after each, until completely melted (it's faster)

3. Although oil your worktop and pour icing sugar. Pour marshmallows on sugar and knead by bringing marshmallows on sugar to the center.

4. Knead until the dough has "absorbed" all the sugar and it is the consistency of a fine paste that stands out.



5. The dough will keep in the fridge. Put a few seconds in the microwave to soften it before work.

6. For color, use food coloring gel (or powder) for bright colors. A board girlfriend: color your fondant putting GLOVES ... otherwise you'll stained hands for at least two days (and I speak from experience!)

Verdict: This is easier to do than it looks ... it takes a lot of patience by cons. And taste, what it tastes like? It tastes like sugar ... I mean, overdose of sugar! :)
