I have trouble rolling my fondant out to an even consistency--and even rolling it out quick enough before it starts drying.

I started to think that maybe if I had a heavier rolling pin, it might be easier...so I'm curious what you all use!

i have the one that has the marble rolling pin with the wooden handles that roll inside... technically you can roll from one end of the table to the other and never have to pick up the pin - does that make sense?

I have a kitchenaid rolling pin just b/c it was the heaviest I could find. The weight of the rolling pin does the work instead of me doing the work.

Forgot to add: the heavy rolling pin also makes it possible to get fondant really thin. The kids/teachers did not comment on the fondant cutouts I placed on my dd's bday cake. The fondant was rolled so thin that the texture blended well with the frosting. You could cut through the fondant pieces with a fork.
