After you make a cake that is covered in MMF, is it ok to put it in the refrigerator? Will it make it hard?
I have a newbie question - what does MMF stand for? (I am assuming F is for fondant?) thanks!
Been making cakes for awhile now - discovered this board and I am sooo impressed!! I tried MMF for the first time today, and either I am super critical or something was wrong. To me it tasted over poweringly like confectionary sugar. (Can unopen confect. sugar go bad?) or does it really make a difference to sift it before adding the melted marshmallow?
I was going to let my taster (13 yr old daughter) taste it, but I don't like it? Any suggestions?
Did it have a bitter taste? The kind that makes your jowels pucker? Did you use a name brand sugar or a generic?
I made some MMF a while ago with generic powderd sugar.....NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!

had more like a stale confectioners sugar taste. Bag was never opened, and I use Imperial Confectioners sugar. Thought maybe I hadn't let the mixer mix it well enough, or maybe it should sit overnight. But this morning it still tasted like I was eating stale powdered sugar. I am trying to get this right so I can start trying different types of cakes instead of just character cakes.
Maybe the sugar was stale! I've never seen imperial brand so I can't say how it tastes compared to C&H or Holly! Another thing to help enhance the taste is to add the 2 oz vanilla melts!!! I tried that and oh yum!!!! It also helped improve the texture! I prefer it with the melts myself!
Give that a try when you make your next batch!!!
