Marshmallow fondant

I LOVE this stuff! It's sooooo easy to make, takes color really well, and is delicious! I used it to make the white letters for Deuce's cupcakes, the dollar signs, the skulls and crossbones, and the tops of the microphones.

I bought pre made red and royal blue (I wanted black, but didn't want to buy 2 seperate packs), fondant because I didn't feel like dealing with red.

I've used this for polka dots, too!

This recipe is from the Wilton's message board.

Marshmallow fondant

1 cup mini marshmallows

1 tbsp water

1 1/2- 1 3/4 cup powder sugar

Place marshmallows in a standard 1 cup measuring cup and push down and pack them in. Place in a microwave safe bowl and add the water. Put in the microwave for about 20 seconds. Just long enough for them to soften and puff up. Take out and stir with a spoon until it is combined well. At this point it looks kind of soupy. Then add the sugar and mix and fold until all is incorporated and it is no longer sticky. I take it out of the bowl when it gets to the point where most of the sugar is incorporated and I knead it in my hands. This takes roughly about 5-7 minutes. Take a fondant roller or a regular rolling pin and roll out just as you would Wilton's fondant. You can get this fondant almost paper thin and it also repairs well. It's cheap, easy to work with, and tastes great too.

You can make a large batch of this fondant as well by doing this:
