I tred the satin ice new recipe listed here. Came out very crumb like. Tasted incredible though. So I wondered if I made the MMF from this site and substituted the 2Tbsp of water with 2Tbsp of lemon juice. Any thoughts on this?????? Please? TIA,
Lisa

I don't know but it sounds good! I'd certainly try it!

I heard it will cut the sweetness of the fondant, haven't tried it though with lemon juice.

Lemon juice may produce off colours with certain colours. Browns and Violets in particular.

ok....so I gave it a try. It did take alot of the sweetness out, But couldn't really taste the lemon. For some reason it also came out really really hard this time. I have made it before but never came out that HARD. It could've just been a fluke. I may give the satin fandant a try again. Just hope it doesn't some out so crumb like. icon_smile.gif

Lemon juice may have been to acidic for the marshmallows and broken down some of it's elasicity.

Maybe use lemon extract next time? Keep playing with your food! icon_wink.gif

You could try lemon oil, since you use crisco on the hands and counter, the oil should not hurt. The brand I use is Boyajian.
