Are you using clear vanilla as your flavoring? Mine always turns out white but I did eventually switch over to Michele Foster's fondant. It handles and taste better than the MMF.

Also, most of the luster dust I use gives the fondant a pearlized shine to it but it is very pretty.

When I used to make MMF, it was never ivory. Always white. And I refuse to put clear vanilla in anything I make, no matter what. Yuch! Yes, switch over to MFF, you'll never look back!

A super white luster would help you. Using all clear flavorings like mentioned above is a great idea. Using the more expensive brand name MM will help also and it's only a few cents.

Wilton sells a white-white icing color. Maybe that would help. I have bought it at Hobby Lobby before.

I've made MMF a few times and it was always white. Come to think of it, I didn't use any flavorings at all. Just marshmallows, ps, and some water.

The brand of marshmellows makes a difference on your shade of white in your final mmf. I just add bright white to get a nice shade of white.
