Where did you get your electric pasta machine?
I bought my pasta machine at Michael's. Usually, the motor is purchased separately. That is my next purchase.

I need to buy me one too. I love working with fondants.
Oh my gosh I have a question!!
We got a pasta machine for a wedding gift that is kind of like a bread machine you put in raw ingredients and it spits out pasta awhile later.....
Anyway....
Could I use this to extrude fondant do you think?? It has 8 different disks for different shapes of pasta!
I have the same machine. I do not think it will work, because the density of fondant is so much greater than that of pasta dough. The fondant would have to be made mighty soft (lots and lots of crisco) before it worked. Did you see the episode of Ace of Cakes where Duff had to knead about half a pound of crisco into the fondant before he could extrude the lo mein for the chinese take out box cake?
But if you try it and it works, please let me know. That would open up a whole world full of new ideas.
Thanks!

Yeah, mine just sits around and collects dust too. I just don't have the time to worry about dragging it down to make fresh pasta, although it is way better than dried or frozen.
I just don't think there is enough pressure in the screw and motor to force fondant through, unless it was kneaded to the point where it sticks to your hands.

The pasta machine you saw in Joanns, did it have a motor? TIA
Earlene sells a very good electric one on her website!
