I have a request for a dairy free wedding cake. I know what the cake is going to be, but the bride is looking for another frosting besides the all shortening american buttercream. There's a recipe on here for marshmellow frosting. Has any one used this for a wedding cake? How does it hold up? Can you put fondant over it? Any help or other suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks All!

can't answer the question but bumping this to the top

Thank you. I appreciate that. I see that your location is Hartland, WI...I went to Arrowhead High School, small world!

why not do a marshmellow fondant if you are wanting a marshmellow frosting and putting fondant on top of it? It tast great and you have the two combined in one...just a thought!

i know that alot of people dont like wilton but they have a stabalized whipped which is non dairy....i think .... and it taste pretty good........Ive used it for a wedding cake worked out good.

I didn't realize that that was non-dairy. Thanks for the info!

It might be too late, but one thing I wanted to point out is that marshmallows are made with gelatin, and if she's vegetarian there is a good chance she won't eat it. Gelatin is made by boiling hooves and skins. Most vegetarians won't eat it.
