Hi guys:
I know that there have been many questions in reference to fondant. However, I don't remember reading about what to do if the fondant gets a littler harder than usual. I thought my Wilton teacher told to use a little bit of crisco to soften it. Did I hear it righth? If not, please let me know what can I possibly use.

Thanks.

Yep, work a bit of crisco into it after zapping it in the microwave for about 5-10 seconds, you'll be amazed how a little warmth will soften it again!

Be VERY careful puting the fondant into the microwave though, it gets hot fast and very hot!!
