I may be misunderstanding you, but if you are putting it on the cake as a covering, gumpaste really isn't an option b/c it dries so hard. it is like porcelin after a few days.

In my experience (limited though it is), gumpaste dries faster because it is rolled thinner.
You could put fondant in a food dehydrator overnight, though, and see if it dries but I think your best bet is gumpaste (for decorating, not covering).
