That's the same thing I was thinking. I didn't want to ask, and look like too much of a newbie.

I ask things that make me look like a newbie all the time. I figure that I'll never learn if I don't ask so I do it. There are WAY too many talented people on this site with loads of knowledge that they're more than willing to share. icon_biggrin.gif

I think I read on a post somewhere in reference to MMBC that is was the addition of butter flavoring to MMF and making it into a fondant that tastes like BC icon_surprised.gif

Someone in another thread suggested I use a mix of mmf and rbc because I prefer the taste of rbc but it's harder to work with than mmf. Maybe thats mmbf?

That's the recipe I use for covering cookies and it's great. Easy to make, easy to work with, tastes really good. If you put it on the cookies right out of the oven it melts a lttle and looks like flooded icing. I let the covered cookies sit out overnight to get them to be less greasy. I've never put it on a cake, but I think it would tear too easily.

Thanks for posting that recipe! I didn't realize it was actually one recipe, so I thought I'd just have to make a batch of each and mix it. That will save me soooo much time! icon_biggrin.gif

i made a batch of butter cream fondant, but it had nothing to do with marshmallows...therefore, is it mmbf?? i'm so confused with the whole fondant thing anyway. i'm a total noob when it comes to fondant period, i'll go ahead and admit it.

I'm a total noob also but I think mmbf is suppose to be easier to work with than rbc I guess because the marshmallows give it some stability. Plus it's suppose to be less greasy.
