After making MMF and MFF, after trying Wilton's, I've settled with Satin Ice. Readily available, not much more expensive than making from scratch and consistant.
I'm with in2cakes2, I use Michelle Foster's fondant. I have also used Satin Ice when rushed for time - it tastes good, too!
I think that Debluvs2bake kinda nailed it though, try everything till you find what works best for you.
About 1/8" thick or so. Just thin enough to cover and form over the cake without tearing and just thick enough to be easily handled. Its a feel you develop after using over and over. Practice as you can, and like golf, you get better by playing often.
What kind of fondant do you all use?
Thanks
Regal Ice.
It is really excellent to work with.
I buy the fondant from decopac, I like how it tastes and its super easy to work with!!! I love it! Ive tried pettinice fondant from bakery crafts and ive used satin ice. Im not too fond of the pettinice fondant from bakery crafts because I feel like it picks up anything that is on my mat. And the satin ice i use but really only for red and black premade colors. For chocolate fondant I buy from bakery crafts its super yummy. It tastes like tootsie roll.
