First try Rolled Fondant

Normal cakes are no longer a trend nowadays. Cakes also can have many style and decorations now. In 2D or 3D. So here comes my curiosity, ppl used to make a 3D cake with fondant decoration. SO, I'm so into to try out the fondant by myself instead of buying the ready made fondant.

Kick start~ i googled for fondant recipe, but it returns a large result..hmm which one should i pick??? I didnt manage to pick from web, so at last I picked a simple rolled fondant recipe from recipe book and modify it.

i dont have any of the ingredients on my hand, so i went to bakery supplier shop with my sis and bought all the ingredients and tools. FYI, if you looking for cheap and affordable ingredients & tools Bakery of Yen would be one of your choice. They have few branch but the one we went was located at Bandar Puteri Puchong. They really have a lots of variety ingredients & tools... whatever you need is all there!

Well, i oways tot fondant is note easy to knead out. Perhaps, you should have try on your own and its actually not that hard. I've try my very first fondant. Here's the ingredient i use.


  • 1 tbsp Gelatin Powder
  • 1/4 cup Water
  • 1/2 cup Glucose syrup
  • 2 tbsp Shortening
  • 1 tbsp Glycerine
  • 1 tbsp Vanilla essence
  • 900g Icing Sugar (sifted)


Steps:
1. Add gelatin powder to a bowl, mix well with water, boiled over a double boiler until gelatin melted smoothly, add in glucose syrup,glycerine and shortening and mix well. Removed from heat and leave the mixture cool until luke warm.
2. Pour half of the icing sugar on a pan, make a whole in middle and stir in the gelatin mixture.Mix in the sugar bit by bit until stickness dissapear.
3. Knead in the remaining sugar until the fondant is smooth. Until the fondant is not feel sticky on your hand, means its ready!
4. Wrapped you fondant with wrapping paper and ready for use.

SO here how it looks like. You can add in the color to make you fondant colourful. It is suggested to use oil based or gel based food colouring so it wont cease the mixture.

Plain Fondant
Coloured Fondant

Thats all for my fondant recipe~ will come up next for my fondant creature! ^^
