Does MMF have a good shelf life like the store bought fondants? I'm thinking of making some to mix with my gumpaste as an experiment. It would need to have a good shelf life tho because a lot of people like to keep the gumpaste figures.
hmmm....during my searches when I first started working with it I remember reading that it's good for a month! Double wrapped.
This could be wrong, wish I could remember the source...
It's not as stable as bought fondant then. Those gumpaste figures need to last and not go moldy if someone decides to keep them so maybe it's best if I stick to store bought fondant.

No, no, you don't have to buy fondant unless you absolutely want to. I have MMF/Gumpaste figures that have sat out for three years and have never done anything other than fade a little. I have never, never seen MMF mold. It has an extraordinarily long shelf life even when being used to apply to cakes.
yeah, i don't think you'd have to worry about it going moldy...especially with the ingredients it uses. I was thinking more along the lines of it drying out....or possibly changing texture a bit.
Thanks. I'll be giving it a try then.
Fondarific is about $40 a bucket and I really dont want to use it for my gumpaste figures!
