I use this recipe for petit fours and it works really well to coat the sides. The first time I made it I was careful with the temperature but now I just stir it until it gets to be the right consistency. It works just fine if you overheat it by a little bit but it won't dry with the same shine. Great recipe!

This works pretty well. I found that by waiting for the fondant to cool down a bit before pouring help with consistency.

I'm actually wavering between three and four stars for this recipe. I used a candy thermometer and was shocked at how far over 92 degrees I had to heat this fondant up. Eventually though, it seemed ready and I used it to pour over my son's cake. It looked fine until I noticed that a lot of it was clear with fine granules of chocolate in it, which gave the appearance, at first glance, of opacity. Ultimately, I figured nobody was going to be examining the fondant that closely, so I didn't toss out the fondant or my cake. The consistency and pourability was just great. When I tasted it, though, I felt that there may have been some undissolved granules... I can't be sure, though, since I used some colored sugars on the cake also. I'm not the most skilled at recipes like this, so the shortcomings in my success may be my own fault.

Worked well the first time and served my purpose as a coating for some chocolate dessert bars. I didn't use a thermometer, but heated the mixture just barely enough to melt the chocolate and keep it pourable.

This fondant was not what I was expecting. Maybe I didn't get it to the right temp, but it was thick, and didn't pour. It also ended up crystalizing very quickly, and I had to throw the batch away! Maybe I need a new candy thermometer?
