This fondant tastes good and is fairly easy for a beginner to work with. I added cherry flavoring and rolled it pretty thin (mostly because I didn't make enough). It was a hit. I have used store fondant once and it tasted horrible. So if you are trying to decide between making your own and buying it; it is well worth it to make your own so that you don't have to see your guests faces sour when they bite into the store bought stuff. Also, I rolled it out between parchment paper and it got stuck to the paper. I almost lost the whole project. Rolling it out on powdered sugar works much better. You will get the right consistency as you roll more powdered sugar into the fondant. I also suggest getting a fondant smoother. I was able to remove most of the imperfections from the frosting underneath not being perfectly smooth.

This recipe is simple and adaptable. You can add whatever you happen to have on hand. I have gotten rave reviews when I make this for company even if I haven't done anything special like making my own sauce or adding meat and veggies. This is a great dish to sneak in food that your kids normally don't eat. Add some fresh spinach to the sauce and if it is cut small they don't even notice. I've also added VERY finely chopped broccoli.
