I made fondant flowers for the first time, and they came out so beautiful, I am really proud of myself. I used my homemade marshmallow fondant recipe and then I used Wilton icing coloring to make blue and yellow fondant, those were the colors of the event that I was making the cupcakes and flowers for. I have to say that kneading the color in the fondant is a lot of work, it took me about 25 minutes for one color, its a workout! I made red velvet, vanilla pudding and lemon blossom cupcakes, and they came out so moist and good. When I dropped them off, the people were so excited with how they turned out which is exciting for me to see. So I guess I am moving on up in the cupcake and cookie business, I know no how to do a little decorating.

These look soooooooooo beautiful
ReplyDeleteI'd love to try and make your homemade marshmallow fondant.
I have a question though - when you knead the fondant - why not with the mixer (as I do with bread-dough)?. Wouldn't it be easier to incorporate the color?
Thanks!
It would be easier, I guess I am just used to doing it the old fashioned way, I do the same when I make bread. I will try it that way when I make more fondant on Wed.
DeleteThanks so much for your reply :)
DeleteI'd really like to try your fondant, especially when it looks sooooooooo good.
I work a lot with yeast (I specialized in baking challahs) and I let the mixer do most of the kneading :)
So beautiful.. I couldn't eat them! See you on the Creative Monday.
ReplyDeleteWow! Everything looks so beautiful! I am sure they are also delicious!
ReplyDeletePam, they look beautiful and sound yummy!
ReplyDeleteThey are great - did they last long before they were all eaten?

BeeeeUtiful!! I know how to make some really good cupcakes, I could probably sell them too if they looked like yours. Too pretty!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness these are too pretty! Thanks so much for sharing at Mix it up Monday :)
ReplyDeleteThose cupcakes are gorgeous and look delicious! I'm sure they were devoured. I love baking but I don't do it often--I would just eat it all and weigh 800 pounds.
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful!!I have always wanted to learn how to do that. I must try it out! Thanks so much for posting it. You did an awesome job!!
ReplyDeleteVery nice, you did a great job. A short time ago I made homemade sprinkles....haven't made anymore but it was easy just hard on the arm pushing the stiff icing in the pastry bag. andi the wednesday baker
