I have only used Wilton fondant and I know it tastes awful. I don't know which fondant to try next. Which ones taste the best? Which ones are easiest to use?
I think mmf it's the best, at least it is for me, I love making it and the taste it's delicious and so easy to work with. I hope this helps.
I love mmf! However, Choco-Pan is my absolute favorite! It's not always practical, due to costs, but it is delicious! It is a bit fragile and takes some getting used to, but the taste is the best ever!
Rhonda's Ultimate MMF is great. I started using my KA to make and it whips up in minutes and I can add the color as it goes.
Plus it cost less than bought. Especially if you don't use it a lot.
I like LaWanda's white chocolate fondant. It tastes great and is pretty easy to work with.
I make my own fondant with white chocolate. I like the taste and so do my customers. I do not like MMF but I also dislike marshmallows!
I have used Satin Ice and Pettinice and either one tastes good.
If I don't have a KA can I make my own fondant or will it be a PITA?
I don't use my KA for making the MMF. All you need is your microwave and some elbow grease, once you get the hang of it ( after one time for me, and I'm no genius) it's a piece of cake I love to be able to whip it up whenever needed, it keeps great in the fridge, and oh so versatile
Satin Ice is premade & ready to roll That's what I use most of the time & I use it when I teach my fondant classes. At home I also use MMF which I love too.
You don't need a mixer to make MMF. Just knead it with your hands. I don't like the mess it makes in my KA so I just knead it. Takes the same amout of time~ Approx 20 min from start to finish~

Denise: would you share your recipe for the white chocolate fondant. I've heard of it and would like to try it, is it difficult to make? The only other person I know declined very politely when I asked how she made it

I second raquel1, please denise!!!! (on knees) share your recipe for chocolate fondant, please, please, please, can you PM it ? Thanks.
I have to make my own fondant because where I live (Mexico City) Satin Ice and Pettinice fondants are very expensive. I have worked with both of them and I liked them very much. I have also tried MMF and I like it a lot.
Do you have to refrigerate mmf?
Only if you're not going to use it or the leftovers for a while. I keep mine out (well covered with crisco and plastic wrap) if I'm going to use within a week, but any longer I refrigerate it and just put it out the day before I need it. If you wrap it well it keeps for a looong time

I'm from Mexico City and it'll be great if I can get some SI to make a cake for my family when I visit. BTW saw your pics and your cakes are beautiful!
Well, I've used Michele Foster's and MMF right off the hop, and they've both been amazing. Michele Foster's is buttery good, but MMF is more kid-friendly and fewer ingredients to make. Ultimately both are WAY cheaper to make yourself, and both have been made in the KA from others (I LOVE MMF in my hands, but Michele Foster's is a Start in the KA and finish in the hands, and I AM a hands'on person and need to feel it before I put it on a cake!!!). I refuse to buy because of cost alone, and then there is always the taste!!!
We use Massa Tacino. They have a "tropique" version that is easier to work with in extreme heat, and that can make all the difference on a carved cake in the summer.
