What is a good EASY rolled fondant recipe?!
I'm a vegetarian, so the recipe can't contain gelatin or marshmallows!? I've been wanting to experiment with fondant for awhile, so any help is appreciated :)Www@FoodAQ@Com

Here's a basic vegan fondant recipe that I got from a vegan bakery!. It works quite well but assumes you are already familiar with candy and fondant making techniques (fondant is really just a type of candy)!. If you aren't you may wish to replace 1/4th cup of the sugar with 1/4th cup corn syrup to help prevent crystallization!. You may also want to visit this link for more detailed instructions about how to make fondant!.

2cups raw sugar
1 cup water
1/8th tsp cream of tartar
Using candy method bring ingredients to 238F!. Finish as per fondant method!.
You knead in any flavorings or colorings you desire when the fondant is cooled and almost pure white!. You can freeze this type of fondant for up to 3 months; let it thaw and then re-knead it before rolling!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Marshmallow fondant really is the best fondant out there!. I understand that you're a vegetarian but you can buy vegan marshmallows!. They may be more expensive but at least that way you wont lose on taste!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
