I'm thinking about buying a pasta machine (actually the Kitchen Aid pasta roller attachment for my mixer) to roll out fondant with consistent thickness for decorations. Does anybody use this method? Thumbs up? Thumbs down? Any feedback on using this method would be appreciated! Thanks!

i'm also ready to buy one but i'm confused as to which one would be better- does the kitchenaid attachment work just as good as the table pasta machine?
I prefer the kitchen aid better than the table one. The table on you need a table to hook on too, and then you either have to do it by hand or need to buy another attachment so is hands free.

I was thinking bout getting a pasta machine as well but what is the widest you can get the fondant with this machine? For ex: Will I be able to cover a 12" or 14" cake? Can a machine handle that much fondant? or Do you use it for only smaller amounts?
i believe they are for smaller projects like to do bows. To cover a cake you would need a huge heavy duty one like one Buddy Valastro has at his bakery. It is a must have for anyone who has a bakery. He let us play with it and in less then i min the fondant was flat ready to cover a cake- no need for a rolling pin.

There are ones that are great for fondant, I just dont use fondant enough on cakes to say it's worth to get one..
