If you did, how did you do it? I was thinking I would add some creme bouquet into the wilton fondant and see how it goes, but didn't know if getting it damp with the flavoring would ruin the fondant.

Just knead it in. I have found that even after adding flavoring there is still that chemical taste to that fondant.

Use cornstarch to help with the "stickiness" and when rolling it out. It should be fine!

I've done it. Just knead, knead, knead, knead, forever. I have to say, though, it didn't improve the taste much at all. icon_sad.gif

I made my first batch of marshmellow fondant this week and it was WONDERFUL. Its easy to make taste GREAT (it melts in your mouth) and does not have that chemical taste that premade fondants have. I would HIGHLY suggest that you try it. PM me if you need the directions!!
OH and its sooooooooo much cheaper than buying fondant!!!

I think adding flavoring to Wilton fondant is a waste of your good flavorings.

I've made mmf and I can't get it really smooth, its like it has "pitting" in it. As much as I can't stand the Wilton, it rolls out nicely. I'm about 2 hours away from a cake decorating store, but I guess I might have to take some time to drive down to try Satin Ice.
