I've been ordering my Satin Ice fondant through my local cake supply store, but like all supplies, fondant has gone way up. I've been researching online, but where is the best place to order online? I'm located in Va Beach, VA. Thanks!!!

I was getting it at a local supply shop too and boy was I surprised that I could get it 50% cheaper online at www.IntoTheOven.com, even with shipping! I was paying $6 lb at my local shop (which actually was about a 45 minute drive one way, not so local) and now I get it for $3 lb there. I also get it in 3 days.

Try globalsugarart.com as well

I don't think they'll let me post a link but I get my fondant from Jester's. I think the web address is www.****************** without spaces though. if you search on yahoo for www.****************** the link will come up.

The company itself (www.satinfinefoods.com) is about the the lowest you will find but shipping becomes the real issue. Many places have it for the same price (about $2.60 per pound) for different shipping rates. I get mine from www.decopac.com as they have flat $27 shipping... and when its going to Alaska that's a big deal!

I pay $15.00 from Golda's Kitchen for two pounds, plus shipping. They are in Missasauga, Ontario, Canada. I don't know where you are, so I don't know if that will help.

Enjoy your day!

Quick Question: Why don't you guys just make your own fondant? Is it because of time and pre-made is much more convenient?

I buy mine from Into The Oven as well. I am happy with them. Shipping is reasonable. The closest cake supply shop to me sold the 20lb Satin white fondant for 99.99! I saved a lot buying online even with the shipping.

I have bought mine from www.****************** as well and was pleased with the cost and shipping time. Here is the web site typed out -

www.****************** I have tried making my own fondant once and it came out awful. I was so disappointed and didn't know what I did wrong. It wasn't smooth and had all kinds of holes in it.

By the way, I have tried both Chocopan and Satin Ice fondant and I thought chocopan was sooooo good. I bought chocolate the last time and it smelled like one big tootsie roll. I had people tell me they loved it. I think all colors of their fondant are chocolate based.

Yes, www.****************** is the cheapest by far, also enter the coupon cakecentral and they will give you 10% off.

why buy?

1) its kosher pareve
2) less mess, time, burning up of the mixer
3) tastes good

Have you checked around for bakery supply places?? I get 20 lbs of satin ice for about $54...and it's well worth every penny b/c I hate making fondant.

I get fondant (I use bakels and fondx..Satin Ice is too vanilly and soft for me) If you have a tax id, CK Products has the best price I have found, although I havent checked out this www.****************** place!

I go through 50 lbs of fondant a week..who has time to make it!

I was ordering from intotheoven.com and www.****************** because my local cake supply store was over 20 miles away. Now that they (American Gift Shoppe) are moving locations, they'll literally be 10 minutes from my house so I'll buy from them. They charge $25 for the 5 lb bucket, but www.****************** (once you factor in shipping) is only around $2 cheaper. I'll pay the extra few dollars so I can get my fondant the day I need it and then I have the opportunity to browse the store. Not sure where you are though, but really www.****************** and intotheoven.com do have some of the lowest prices (and lowest shipping) I've seen.
