Am I The Only One Who Doesn't Like Marshmallow Fondant????

I'm making it for the first time today!? I don't like the way store-bought folled fondant tastes, but my husband and kids liked it. Then again, they'll eat anything with a hint of sweet in it!
I just made MMF yesterday for the first time. I didn't like it either! I think I'm going to go with the faux fondant when I make the cake!
I find that it tastes a lot like the pre-made stuff I buy so I'm no further ahead in that category. On the other hand it is very cost effective compared to the bought fondant.
I agree with MrsMissey, it is much more cost effective .. as for taste, it is chewy and I think that in itself is what some people do not care for .. most icings are smooth and melt once in the palate .. I think the chewy texture isn't expected and a lot of people just don't care for that .. so I put plenty of icing under mine .. for those that do not care for the fondant, they can peel it off and enjoy the icing beneath it
.. ask me why I do this? I have to say it's because you get such a wonderfully smooth surface that you don't have to worry with like you do with buttercream ![]()
I think it's okay, but I prefer plain buttercream. I have thought about flavoring it, but sometimes you just want the good old vanilla and chocolate.
I use it primarly for the looks. I think I'm going to try Satin Ice and maybe some homemade ones too.
