Hi, you have to knead the fondant with a little bit of shortening. Also I would highly recommend Sugarshack's "Flawless Fondan" dvd.

thank you very much for the suggestions bashini ,im gonna try the shortening tip and was looking for sugarshack's video and i think its very interesting and complete so i gonna buy as soon as posible. sorry was so late to reply you but i was pretty sick on last month but im on my road again

You are welcome and hope you are feeling much better now.

I too sometimes get elephant skin and for the life of me.... I have NO IDEA why some do and some don't... I keand it the same way , roll ot the same way... don't know and wish I could find out why....
