What type fondant are you using? I always use chocolate fondant and NEVER have those issues.

my fondant gets really dry and cracks what can I do to make it more moist
I made the fondant mysef used marshmellow, water, crisco, and powdered sugar. it turned out to be very dry and cracks and i dunno how to make it more moist
I hear a lot of hit and miss with the marshmallow fondant..... The chocolate performs like a DREAM.
Check out the testimonials on my website, www.jenniferdontz.com
I would never use anything else.
If you have any questions, I'm happy to try and help you. Fondant should not be a chore, it's VERY EASY to make and apply to the cakes.
Happy baking!

I find that different brands of marshmallows give different results. I used to buy the store brand and it always worked fine for me. Then one time I found another brand on sale and tried those. It gave a different result - it was hard to knead and was dry. Try kneading in some shortening, hopefully that will help.
