I've made a few attempts with the mmf and cannot get a clean cut. It comes out torn and jagged. Anybody with tips to share? Thanks!

I had the same experience last night...I am really frustrated, about to take it back. My last hope is the tips listed by this user.

I am going to try adding Tylose and freezing it for 20-30 minutes like she suggested, if i dont have any luck, I am taking it back. I put the shortening on my mat with my hand, I am goign to try using a brush too, maybe that keeps it more secure on the mat. Good Luck!!! I know I am going to need lots of it!

Try wilton fondant, it works better then most. I think MMF is way too soft.
