Dorm Dec Wednesdays: Countdown to my Birthday, Part Three

Final installment of Countdown to my Birthday involved fondant recipes.  Since I've never done fondant before I hope I can do it!

Here are some recipes I've found:

Apparently (and I didn't know this) regular fondant doesn't have a taste & even thought it makes a cake look smooth & pretty most people don't like to eat it!  I had no clue!  Thus, I've settled on a few recipes that create marshmallow fondant.  I looooove marshmallows!  I have had marshmallow fondant before & it was delicious!

This first recipe is from Domestic Sugar where I learned that little tidbit about fondant.  Look at these cherry blossoms made with the fondant:


The second recipe is for a regular (non-marshmallow) fondant but I wonder if I can add a vanilla extract or something to add flavor?  There is also a video along with the recipe which will be super helpful!



A similar recipe from All Recipes for marshmallow fondant is here.  I think I will end up trying all of these just to see what works.

Don't forget to enter the topper giveaway here!  Entries end on Friday the 10th @ 11:59 pm EST.  Hurry over!
