I was planning on making Michele Foster's Fondant today for my sisters Doll cake- I have 5 lbs of Satin Ice (Which I've never used before :S) to do the dress with, but since I was doing an extra layer to the dress, I figure I will need more than the 72 ounces the wilton instructions call for (Which still seems like alot!)
The issue is that I didn't know it needed to sit for 24 hours before using it- this cake needs to be done in like, 26 hours! lol. Is it usable before the 24 hours? Or is it necessary to wait that long? Thanks...
There's a recipe for jello fondant in the recipe section. You can use plain gelatin in place of jello. It only needs to rest for an hour before you can use it. Maybe try that
Hmmmm...do you mean plain jello in the place of gelatin? I don' t have any of that...I really don't wanna have to use Wilton either, LOL.
Can you tell me what the diference is between MMF and the kind you wanted to use texture, elastability and taste wise? I have only tried wilton's-GROSS!!!! and MMF which I have flavored up the waazoo and added 1/4 salt to balance the sweetness and it is pretty good and so far everyone actually eats it. My kids beg for some while I am making it and try to snag more while I am not looking..lol My favorite flavor combo is a mix of vanilla, butter and cream.

I have no idea, this will only be my third time working with fondant at all...
If the cake even turns out. Already the top is burnt and the middle isn't done. I followed the instructions exactly.....it didn't even come up to the top of the pan.....I'm not sure how this is going to turn out. 
ooh dear..I alwasy bake in a 310 to 320 oven for a bit longer and i try not to bake too thick..It is nice to be able to tort but the overdone edges are my issue unless I bake in my coveted air-bake pan. Someone told me if you have a thick layer or large area in a character pan to use a metal flower nail as a heating core to speed up that area before the rest gets overdone.
