Fondant by Mckenzie

Our beautiful Mckenzie was willing to put together a fun filled evening of cake decorating using fondant. We had a fantastic time and appreciate all that Mckenzie did to organize this fabulous activity!!
 It did get a bit messy...and we may or may not have eaten half the fondant before it made it onto the cupcakes. :)
 
 Voila! The masterpieces!!
Here is the fondant recipe that Mckenzie made-

Marshmallow Fondant:
1 bag mini mashmallows
4 Tablespoons water

Microwave them together for 1:30-2 min, they should still be in marshmallow form. Then stir the marshmallows until liquidy.

Then stir in 8 cups of powdered sugar....or until it won't take anymore then cover your work surface with a little powdered sugar and dump the whole bowl on top and kind of kneed it till it's thick and not so marshmallow-y (less stretchy) 

Then, based on what happened tonight, I would refrigerate it before you use it because the harder the stuff was in the beginning, the less it stuck to your hands.
