Yes, I've used it and it's my favorite fondant - bar none - to work with. I live in a hot, humid climate and there are days when no other fondant will do anything buy lay in a puddle until I do a lot of things to it to make it set up right. With the Massa Ticino Tropic, I didn't have to do anything but use it. It's also the best tasting fondant I've used.

I also live in the UAE and i saw that brand in Tavola. I read a lot of reviews on how good it is and I'm just waiting for the perfect occasion to try it out. I just cant waste 250 dhs for testing only looool.

I love it. It works great, doesn't tear or crack and no "elephant skin". Plus, it tastes great. I use it for most of my cakes.

HELL YEAH!!!! I won't use anything else, it's the BEST fondant I've ever used - just like someone said previously, it doesn't tear, doesn't stretch or elephant skin PLUS you can roll it to about a 16th of an inch thin and it still covers a treat. The only thing you do need to watch for is when you are colouring it - it is just like any other fondant, the more colour you add the softer it becomes and you would either need to let it rest for at least a day, or let it rest AND add some tylose to it to get it to firm up. I literally can't sing it's praises enough!
