Ok, I'm going to attempt to make my own fondant for my son's birthday cake.


Has anyone ever made it before? I am using a marshmallow type, it's said to be tastier.


I'll let you know how it turns out, hehe.


This will also be my first time using fondant, so let's hope I don't screw it up!

Well, the fondant was kind of a pain in the buttocks to make, but I'd do it again, lol. I made it a few days earlier. I wont be doing the cake until Sunday. I'm making SpongeBob SquarePants. This is what he's going to look like.


My hands hurt so bad this morning! Not only do you have to knead the fondant when making it, you have to knead in colors, too. I had to have white; yellow; brown; blue; black; red; and green.


I'll definetly take pics when I am done. I have been considering a website with all my cake projects on it. Last year I made him a Spiderman cake, just the face. Half was Spidey, half was Venom. But do you think I can find the pics? Noo, its on the computer that crashed shortly after his bday, lol.

I turned a friend of mine on to this cake. She makes really nice fondant cakes and got really excited when she saw this one.

I love that cake Silver I wonder if it was made with fondant or with gum-paste though. Either way, it's AWESOME!


Marrian that is the most perfect Spongebob picture ever, especially for a birthday cake


Definitely take pics so we can see the end result! I have no doubt it'll be great

Wow, that muppet cake is awesome! I bet it took a good amount of time doing that. Looks like a lot of it was gumpaste.
