Marshmallow Fondant

Have you ever wanted to know how to make those amazing cakes like these?
Its easier than you think
 You just bake and fill the cake
 And make the fondant.
 Freeze the cake and let the fondant sit on the counter for 24 hours
And then you just ice it to adhere the fondant and press it on and there you go :)
 
 
 
Here is the recipe for Marshmallow fondant. Each one of these cake took one full batch, some had a few pieces of left overs.
 
Marshmallow Fondant
16 oz mini marshmallows
2 tsp vanilla
2 Tbsp water
2 lbs powdered sugar, sifted
 
1. Spray a large mixing bowl with pam; add marshmallows, water and vanilla.
2. Place in microwave on HIGH for 2 mins
3. Fit the kitchen aid with the dough hook. Mix in marshmallow mixture with the sugar. Add sugar until dough forms. Low for one minute, then turn to medium speed for 2 mins. Add one tsp of water if needed.
4. Turn out dough to a clean surface and kneed until smooth. Wrap tightly in a air tight container and let it set 8-12 hours, or overnight.
*will keep for up to one week
