how to make marshmallow fondant

Assalamualaikum
Hi
Last time i did my first marshmallow fondant with miniature marshmallows
n i went to my fav bakery shop to make more fondant, they were sold out.
so i decided to buy normal marshmallow u can find them in normal supermarket.
As long as it is WHITE and HALAL.


Ingredients 
2 packs of 200g white marshmallow (make sure it's HALAL and some prefer mini size)
2 table spoons of water
1kg of icing sugars (sifted)
few scoops of vegetable shortening
colourings (oil based/paste)

OR

16 oz mini-marshmallows 
2 lb powdered sugar 
1 tbsp water 
1 tsp corn syrup (optional) 
1 tsp lemon extract (optional) 

Yield: 3 lbs fondant 
from cake boss


1) Melt the marshmallow. Pour them into heat resistent container and add 2 table spoons of water. 
Stir every 30 seconds until they completely melt. (it will take around 2 minutes)


2) Dont forget to grease your spatula beforehand. Or u will suffer when it comes to cleaning it since marshmallow sticks so hardly on surface.


3) Pour the melted marshmallow onto bunch of sugar. Do not used all sugar. Half of it will be enough. The other half will be needed during ur kneading process later.
Oh ya, again, not forget to grease ur working surface with shortening. This will be so messy but yeah.. that's what it needs. =D


4) Knead the fondant and add the remaining sugars until u can feel the consistency of fondant more or less like play-doh.


5) Lastly, knead fondant nicely into ball shape and coat it with thin layer of shortening before wrapping it with plastic. U'll have to set it for a day before using. Dont store fondant in refrigerator/freezer. Keep it in any air-tight container in room temperature up to months. Try it and enjoy! =)



Thank you for reading.

p/s: there's other way to make fondant without marshmallow. I've tried 2-3 years ago. click here

dental themed cupcakes

another order from my colleague.. senior colleague
a set of 12 cupcakes with dental theme
fuhh~ demmm excited! =D
i googled few photo on dental/dentist theme cuppies but only few came out.
so i tried do on my own and expected the best from me. hee~
so scroll down and enjoy my fondants. =)

the green sheet there was actually mask. but it turned weird. maybe the colour didnt really match the real one. 'smile' lips, few big tooths, and denture? errr...

i think this denture looked better. with toothbrush and some dental tools. what? mirror and probe?

toothpastes.. and the tools

Mix and match. Setting up the fondant decos with the bases. based on colour and equality.

added 'spices' (flower and sorts)

flosses.

toothbrush with lil cutey of toothpaste on it.

''okay. now we can start putting those on cakes!'' =D

i left two cupcakes with no fondant bases to make gigantic molar tooth on it. hehe

and........ taddaa!



so that's it.
thank you for viewing my blog. =D

make-up theme fondant cupcakes

like i mentioned in previous post
i've done fondant cupcakes!
specially requested by my dearest buddy.. =)

it was my very first time after 3 years since i last did my FIRST fondant. =D
that time i used this recipe
and now i wanna share another simple and cheap way to make fondant.
 here it is:

Ingredients 
16 oz mini-marshmallows 
2 lb powdered sugar 
1 tbsp water 
1 tsp corn syrup (optional) 
1 tsp lemon extract (optional) 

Yield: 3 lbs fondant 
from cake boss

but mine, an altered version:
i used 2 packs of 250g mini marshmallow
2-3 table spoons of water
1kg of icing sugars
few scoops of vegetable shortening
colourings (oil based/paste)

basically.. first thing first.. melt the marshmallow. pour them into heat resistent container and add 3 table spoons of water. 
Microwave them until marshmallows are puffed up and soft looking. (about 2-3 minutes) n stir with greased wooden stick every 30-45 seconds intervals.

Next step, stir the melted marshmallows until it mixed well and pour it onto bunch of sifted icing sugar..
u may put around 500g first.. then start kneading.. knead knead n knead until u can feel the consistency of the sugars changed. add some more sugar until it form the usual fondant u've seen.. thick, not-to-sticky, not-to-fragile.

to colour, just drop or dots ur fondant with what ever colour u want and knead until it mixes well. =)
keep it one day in a air-tight container or wrap with plastics before u use it just to make the colour n texture more stable.

scroll down n enjoy my first make-up theme fondant cupcakes photos. =)
