Hi. I'm ready to decorate, and find my Wilton fondant is hardened. Is there any way I can soften it to still use it?

You can pop it in the microwave for a few seconds. Start with five seconds and then knead it. Make sure that you keep any unused fondant tightly wrapped. Also, you will find here that many people are not fans of Wilton fondant. Next time, you might want to try a different brand. I personally like Satin Ice and Choco-Pan. Hope that helps icon_smile.gif

pop it in the microwave for 10 second intervals-it softens right up, but BE VERY CAREFUL, because it gets really hot quickly and will burn you!
