I would love to see the complete cakes!

And I LOVE marshmallow fondant. So fun to work with!

If you need different colors, just make a batch and keep it white. Then you can kneed the color into it before you use it.

Also, if you make it a day ahead and then put it in a ball covered in shortening and wrapped in plastic wrap it is easier to use the next day. Also, it can keep for a while, so you can make all of your colors ahead of time.

And LASTLY it is a LOT easier to do cupcakes! Just cute the fondant out in a circle the size of the top of the cupcake. Then you can decorate it with the butterflies and you won't have to worry about the folds at the bottom of the cake!

I've used it too and it does taste better. When I make it though, I just use a jar of Marshmallow creme and add powdered sugar until it is the right consistency. I got this from Women's Day a long time ago ;-)

Thanks for posting this! I found that same recipe at Wilton a few months ago when planning a baby shower for my daughter. I never did make it because every time I bought the marshmallows, one or another kid found them and ate them! Then mu aunt volunteered to make a baby cake and I was off the hook. Its nice to know that someone who is not a baker tried this and had some success. This makes me want to go buy more marshmallows and find a better hiding place for them!

I have to say, marshmallow fondant sounds pretty yummy! I've never been much of a cake decorator, but I might just have to try it now.

Oh, cool! I've always wanted to try this!
