Very cool-can I ask if you are doing a dog "theme" for this party and if so, what other things are going with it?

TIA

It's just the marshmallows, powdered sugar and water. I tinted it pink and rolled it out. It was like $5, if that for the stuff. I baked a cake and put it on it and it actually tasted pretty good.

Here are the instructions

Michelle1123 made the fondant for her DS's cake, that's how I got the idea!

I don't think it's 5lbs, probably if it's doubled. That's a good price..can you tint that too? Is this at Michaels?

Re: Cake im Making...

yes its 20 and right now theres a50 percent acmoore online which you can use...you just work the colring into it, you need the jarred gel ones, not liquid, if you need to add a lot of color you also work in powdered sugar, just like you would with pizza dough so its not sticky, its sooo easy, you cant mess it up...

Re: Cake im Making...

Ahhh I used the regular food coloring for the marshmallow one and it seemed to work pretty good. I didn't have to use much though

Oh no, of course not!Chat Icon

To OP-if you get to go to the party (and you should considering it is such a fabulous cake), can you share the details of it for others who may want to do something similar?

I really love the cake!

I've made the marshmallow fondant that was posted above and it tastes much better than the Wilton, but isn't as easy to work with. I found when I added too much color, it lost some of it's functionality. It is cheaper, but it is a little annoying to make and you have to make sure you make it in advance so it can rest overnight.
I'm going to try Satin Ice next....I hear that tastes better than Wilton,but is just as easy to use.

Adorable dogs by the way! I've just started making fondant figures....so much fun!Chat Icon
