I bought some Wilton glycerine at the craft store because i remember reading about it on here....just cant remember where and what recipe i wanted to try??/lol
Maybe fondant?
WHAT IS THE BEST AND EASIEST MMF recipe for a beginner....just wanted to know ur opinions...
Thanks!!
making a cake next week and want to cover in fondant...any ideas will be greatly appreciated 
Glycerin is used to add stretch and pliability to fondant. It can soften stiff fondant without causing it to be sticky. Glycerin is also great for softening gumpaste. It will also thin dried Wilton jar food colors.
As for MMF, I don't know which recipe to suggest. Look in the recipe section and try the top rated recipe. You may have to play with it to get it to the consistency that you like.

Thanks for that explanation, I was unclear on the whole glycerin thing too! 
I use Mac's Moms buttercreme MMF in the recipe section on this site...it uses glycerine and it makes the MMF very easy to work with. HTH!
This isn't cake-related but if you ever have an extra bit of glycerine left you can use it to make bubble mix for the children.
# 1/2 gallon of water
# 1/2 cup dishwashing liquid (Joy or Dawn works best.)
# 1/4 cup glycerine
1. Mix ingredients together in a wide container.
2. If using immediately, try not to agitate the solution. Foamy solution does not make the best bubbles. If the solution become too foamy, wait for it to settle.
3. Find straws, tea strainers, funnels, sieves, etc. for making bubbles. Dip these in the bubble solution.
4. Blow or wave bubbles into the air.
5. Store any leftover solution in a a close-able container. The bubble solution will get better with age.

I've tried it and it really works well.
You can also use your leftover glycerine to moisturise any rough bits on your elbows or knees.
