Professional Bakers:

Have any of you tried to make a really Large batch of MMF? I have a 20qt mixer with paddle & 80qt with paddle & dough hook. I would like to make a large batch of MMF or other rolled fondant. Does the MMF recipe need to be altered if you enlarge it this much?

Any tips would be appreciated!!

good question.... by chance have you asked a bakery around you?

Just a thought: I have never heard of a bakery (like a storefront bakery) using MMF so I am not sure they would even know what it was. (regular fondant maybe)

I make a full bag recipe but have never tried to do more than that. I use my KA some but mostly I use my arms.

Hopefully someone else can answer your question. : )

Here's a large recipe for rolled fondant.

I have not tried the recipe but this site has large scaled recipes on it.
