Well here it is. Can't say that I am happy with it but I'm tired of messin' with it. My fondant towards the end turned into like dried play doh so I couldn't do with it what I wanted and the fondat ribbon is just horrible. You can see where I tried to moisten it but it didn't work. Plus it was supposed to be red!! lol However, I do like the way the marbling turned out.
Just wanted to show it to y'all. I may do something different to it but for now I am done. Got to get started on some Buckeye Balls!!
Lovely cake. it so beautiful, seeing the cake one will not know its your first if you dont say so.
I like it!! I love the marbelling and it doesnt really look like u struggled with it...GREAT JOB!
Add the color to the melted marshmallows before you add the pwd sugar.
Popping the mmf back into the microwave for 15-30sec will soften it.
Use crisco when kneading the mmf as it will help keep it from drying out.
It is fun to play with and I do like the marbling though I can never get it marbled just the way I want it. I still haven't done a stacked cake (no need) so you're ahead of me.
I think your cake turned out very pretty. I like the marbling affect and I would not have guessed this was the first time you did this.
I think that it looks great Susan!! I haven't done a stacked cake yet. When I do...I hope mine turns out as good as yours!!

Thank you everyone! You people are simply awesome. I appreciate all the nice things you said about my cake. I was real stressed afterwards and got a migraine. So I wasn't here to respond. I just saw it so much differently and wanted perfection
And thank you bubblzmom for the excellent advice! I will definitely remember it.

not bad for your first, fondant dries up fast you have to keep it cover. when it dries up just add alittle bit of shortening that works for me.
I love the marbeled effect. Great job!! It seems you've learned a lot and had a great result.
Beautiful marbilization effect! And great work on the fondant!
I'd say it was a great success.
I really love the marbled look! Great job!
I think that we are our own worst critics!
