Thanks. I will try to print just the receipe. I am running out of Ink for my printer. I am also a touch OCD and will continue searching the receipe section untill I find it. Now it has become a challege

Did I say thank you?

OK, now this is really weird. I found it in the recipe section yesterday when I searched fondant. It was titled SophieBelle's Jello Fondant. I even printed it out. Now I'm trying to find it again in the recipes and I can't find it. Hmmmm, whadup??

Ok...so I am not going crazy. Did the powers that be remove the receipe for some reason? Maybe it is a conspiracy

awesome thanks for the recipe.

migh be a silly question, but... where can I get glycerin at?

You can buy glycerin at Michael's, Hobby Lobby, or Walmart in the crafts section. Or you can order it on line from Wilton or Sugarcraft.com

Hi Friends!

Did some of you really see the recipe in the recipes section yesterday? I've been checking and haven't seen it yet! Can't wait to see it posted. Wonder why it was up and now it's not.

Anyway, I'm sure it will show up eventually.

Love ya!

I can't find it in the recipe section. Fortunately I wrote it out yesterday from here. I wonder what has happened?

Well, I can't explain how it was up for a little while, but I can say that I checked in the Help section and it states that it can take up to three weeks for a submitted recipe to be posted to the Recipes list.

I will try to be patient....(tapping my foot impatiently...)

As soon as CC posts the recipe (they check it first) then you can go to Sophie´s profile and under HER recipes you will be able to find it. HTH.

Thank you for sharing...I didn't see the recipe either, but can't wait!!! =)

I found the recipe a couple of times today when I went checking. You can find it by doing this: Do a search for fondant. When this comes up, go to the bottom and click on "view all results for fondant in recipes". When the recipes come up, it should be about the 16th recipe down from the top. It is called SophieBelle's Jello Fondant

I'm looking forward to trying this recipe. Thanks for sharing!!

This sounds good. I'm going to have to try it. Thanks.

I went to find the recipe in the recipe section and couldn't find it. I will just have to keep my eyes out.

BTW SophieBelle, I love the name Sophie. In fact that's what my oldest daughter's name is.

SophieBelle,

Can you use the KitchenAid to mix. I mix the MMF then need in the last 2 cups by hand.? This receipe sounds great I can't wait to try it. If you have used it on any cakes you have posted please let me know.

OK, try this. http://www.cakecentral.com/cak.....ndant.html

I get an error message when I try that link

OK, this is crazy!!! Is someone playing a late April fool's trick?????? It was there one minute, now it say's error. OK, I give up. This is the weirdest thing I've seen yet...............

Here you go, guys! Yippee!



SophieBelle's Jello Fondant
Serves/Yields: Approximately 4 pounds of fondant
Prep. Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time:
Category: Fondant/Gumpaste/Sugarpaste
Difficulty: Moderate


Introduction
HI, I'm Tamatha (SophieBelle). I hope you enjoy this twist on fondant.
Ingredients
1 small package of Jello Gelatin (you choose the flavor/color)
Boiling water
1/4 cup glucose
1 Tablespoon glycerin (optional, see below)
4 pounds confectioner's sugar
1/4 cup shortening

Directions
Place the contents of the Jello packet into a glass one-cup measure. Add boiling water to the 3/4 cup line. Stir to completely dissolve. Add the glucose to make one cup of liquid and stir to dissolve. At this point, you may add the glycerin if you plan to use the fondant to cover cakes. However, if you plan to use it for embellishments or cookies, you may leave the glycerin out since you won't need as much 'stretch' in your fondant. If glycerin is added, stir until it also completely dissolves in the Jello/boiling water solution.

Let the solution cool for about 5 minutes while sifting the confectioner's sugar into a large glass bowl. Remove about 1 cup of the sugar and reserve for kneading later on.

Test the side of the glass measuring cup to make sure the Jello solution has cooled enough to handle. Make a well in the sifted sugar (in the bowl) and pour in the Jello solution. Using a large spoon, stir in a little of the sugar from the sides of the bowl, pulling in more sugar until it is completely incorporated and forms a rough ball.

Sprinkle some reserved confectioner's sugar on your clean work surface and turn the fondant out onto it. Knead in the final amount of sugar this way. The fondant will feel a little rough at this point, but it's ok. Knead just until the sugar is all incorporated, then form the fondant into a ball. Use your fingers to grease the bowl, then rub the shortening from your hands onto the fondant before placing it in the bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let the fondant rest for about an hour.

Grease your clean work surface and turn out the fondant. Knead in shortening until the fondant feels right. You will see how the shortening transforms the texture of the fondant from kind of rough to satiny.

For storage, wrap ithe fondant in plastic wrap and keep it in an airtight containter.

Edited to add the line about adding the glucose! Sorry for the oversight before.

Everyone, an observant CC'er just pointed out that I had left out the step where you add the glucose! I've added it to the post above.

Please tell me where I can find Glucose. Thanks once again SophieBelle.

SophiaBelle, this sounds wonderful!! I can't wait to try it!! Thanks so much for sharing.

I was just wondering if this dries hard like regular fondant when making figures? And does it have more of a candy taste to it?

Thanks again!!

All that matters is what you think of it and what your clients and family/friends think!! I am going to try it this week and am so excited!!

LittleLinda, thanks for the help with that. I think it might have been because it had already been quoted in another post.

You know what? It's really kind of exciting to think I put up a recipe and now my CC friends around the county and even further are getting ready to try it themselves! I keep imagining you guys looking at the Jello at the grocery store and I think how neat that we can affect each other's lives like that. I've learned so much here and I love it.

I actually think about things you guys posted all the time! I'll think, oh, so-and-so on CC said this about that...So funny how we kind of know each other without ever meeting. It's cool!

That is so true. I am so new here and have already learned so much from all of you wonderful and talented people!!
