lol well the one i made was yummy and i swear its nothing like the reg fondant!!! post pics when your done, when you dye it push your thumb in it and add your jell to it and fold it over and then just knead it like bread and keep your surface covered with crisco!!!
good luck I bet she will love it!!

thats what i figured, just wasnt sure! thanks  

yeah i used the one posted earlier in the thread. We have 4 batches all split into different colors. If you melt the marshmellows to much its a pain in the ass, but other then that, its easy to make, as for rolling and stuff, I havent done it yet, thats my project tonight. We are making a baby einstein catterpillar and i will DEFF take pics to show you ladies. The best thing about it too. Right now Giant grocery store has a sale on mini marshmellows and confectioners sugar! Actually I think ALL of the ingridents except for the dye(which was really effin expensive) were cheap.

Its actually currently a playdoh like consistancy, but its sooo tasty

we needed brown, red, purple, green, yellow, blue, more red, and more yellow. Lol.. I just got this huge pack of primarys and mixed. ac moore is cheap for dye or if you go down rt 13 to the reastraunt store they are pretty cheap too. For some reason I didnt even think to try aldi and its not to far from giant *cries* I did use boxed cake (shame) BUT thats because im making 10-8 inch rounds and 6 cupcakes
