here is the link of recipes for marshmallow fondant

and a link for fondant

marbled fondant is basically 2 different colored fondants mixed together but they are not all the way but so you can see the 2 colors. Hope that makes sense
but I am attaching a link so that you can see how to color fondant but it is the kinda the same principle (without adding color)

The best way to marbleize you colors is to put 2 rolls/snakes side by side; twist them together 3 or 4 times; pull; fold in each end to the center; twist once more and roll out. If you do any more twisting or folding it will mix the colors too much.
If you are not happy w/the results you can try remixing and rolling once more but after that you will have muddy colors not worth working with.
