is this royal icing? you can mix it up to make it quite runny and you flood the top of cupcakes and then it dries hard, or add glycirine to it to get it to dry soft.

but it could be something else?

I have to add that Peggy Porschen in her books adds a small amount of liquid glucose to liquid fondant and heats again for 20 seconds, stirring, if you do it in a saucepan. She says that if necessary, you add a little water or sugar syrup to make it more liquid if it is too thick. Then you add the color.

Do not let it boil or it will lose its shine!

Look at the end of this video, for how she uses it.




I figure you would have to put your mini cakes in a rack and pour the fondant on them, depending on their size.

Poured fondant is also know as "petit four icing". Just powdered sugar, corn syrup water and some flavoring. There are recipes for it on CC and all over the web.
