Can heat affect the taste of fondant?
Been making cakes for quite a while without a single complaint. Last week made a cake using DH cake mix, buttercream icing (Wilton crisco-only recipe), and Satin Ice fondant. The cake tasted great as usual, I tasted the buttercream (normal), and I always use Satin Ice because it's always great. Customer came in saying the fondant tasted "mediciny". I came home and tasted the fondant. It was the normal yummy flavor. I used the blue and red precolored. They tasted just fine.
Could it be because she put the cake in her trunk for an hour driving home on a hot day? She's used to my fondant covered cakes so she knows what fondant tastes like...
Any clue anyone?
TIA
It can also depend on what she was eating/drinking right before she tasted the cake. Lots of folks don't realize one flavor can affect another.
