Ok. So I want to practice on making bows.
I have tried the rolling pin but I feel that I often roll it too thin in one place and too thick in others. ![]()
I purchased a mini pasta machine but it doesn't flatten well. The fondant comes out wrinkled. ![]()
I'm going to throw it out tomorrow. 
Are there any other ideas or can anyone give me pointers or advice???
Please help me
When using a pasta machine to roll your fondant, make sure the piece you put in is almost as thin as the finished piece will be. If it's too thick going in, the edges will be torn & ragged when it comes out.
Took lots of messing with my pasta machine before I finally figured that out!
Also, make sure you've kneaded your fondant well before running it through. The edges will also be torn & ragged if the fondant is too cold.
I just read a post on rolling pin rings...they are rings that you put on your rolling pin to roll the fondant evenly. They come in different sizes. Here is the website for buying them.

Are you starting with a higher number and running it through, then lowering the number and running it through and keep doing it until it's thin? Or maybe it's starting with a lower number and going up- I can't remember without going to look at mine. Anyway, that helps.
