I haven't worked with the chocolate before, but I wonder if you can microwave it for a few seconds to help warm it up.

I haven't worked with chocolate fondant before, but it seems like it would be the same issue as regular -- needs some water and crisco.

Just a tiny bit of water can go a long way.

Hope this helps,

Sarah

I've never made chocolate MMF, but with the regular MMF recipe, I never need all the powdered sugar it calls for. I would also recommend adding more water and some crisco until you get a softer consistency.

Good luck!
