Nope. the last two cakes I made with fondant resulted in empty plates. It reminds me a bit of circus peanuts, which I love.

I eat it too, maybe that's why I need to lose weight icon_confused.gif

I have a friend that just loves MMF. She told me she ate it and left the cake in the plate icon_lol.gif

I like it, but only the good stuff. I prefer Satin Ice.

I am happy to report that at a bridal show a couple weeks ago, I had out alot of cake samples, but also small blocks of MMF.
Anyone who tried the MMF was pleasantly surprised, and I gained a few customers that way!

fresh w/in a day chocolate or vanilla satin ice - yes. the flavor and texture blend well with buttercream and cake flavors/fillings.

mmf...not so much. too sweet, and not every cake flavor goes well with marshmallows.

wilton....bleck. wouldnt even consider it.

just a matter of personal taste i suppose.

I'll usually eat a few bites, but I prefer the cake without it.

I just don't like the chewiness much.

When I serve a fondant-covered cake, about 1/2 the guests usually eat the fondant.

I really like it on NFSC. I tried to eat it on my tiffany bag cake (because I had made it lemon!), but it didn't really go with the cake. I ate some of it separately from the cake...

I really need to make lemon nfsc with lemon mmf...or maybe not b/c I'd probably eat the whole batch by myself...lol

I just can't. I have tried it more than once, homemade and satin-ice...I just can't get past the texture. Most people I know will try a couple of bites of cake with it and then peel off the rest.

I like Pettinice, it's expensive but I only use it when I have a very special cake to do. I'm too chicken to try MMF, I really should though!!
