My last batch was dry and I was like what the heck... I followed your video on how to make it.... Why??? And now I found this video.... THANK YOU!!!! I didn't do everything right as usual.... User error!! Add more water and wait until it's incorporated ALL the way through!!! Thank you Karolyn!!! Once again you have become an incredible asset to me!! Hugs to you!!!❤️❤️
I'm glad you figured it out! It can be super annoying when it's not going your way!🙏
Thank you, Karolyn!
Thank you so much for showing in detail how to make fondant.
Thank you karolyn!
Thanks Karolyn for sharing these helpful videos
Glad it was helpful!
Ok this weekend Im going for it LOL you are the best teacher!
You got this!🙌
Karolyn, thank you so much for your videos. I know it’s a ton of work. I truly appreciate all I have learned from you!
Awwww thank you Rita!
I just found your channel and I love you!! Your cakes are incredible and your guided direction is the easiest to follow. Watching you gives me more confidence to try some new techniques. Thank you!!
This makes me so happy to hear! You’re welcome Laurie! ☺️🙌🏼
this was great now i understand why mine was so sticky almost to the point on kneading it on the counter top.
Thank you so much for this and all your other videos! I made a batch yesterday and for the first time I ran into the dry issue. It’s in the high 90s here and I think that made the difference. PS - I love that you refer to Friends in regular day to day life! It’s my favorite series 😀
(Monica) I KNOW!!! I speak fluent FRIENDS quotes so I'm glad that some people actually understand it! 😂
My fondant turned out perfectly!!!! Thank you so much.
Yayyyyyy!! You're welcome! 🙌
I'm new at decorating and baking. You have helped me so much. I couldn't wait until the end bought wedding cake extract before the end of video,😂😂😂 thank you
Yayyyyy!! Let me know how you like it!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! You are the best😁, I could hug you right now!! Lol. I haven't made fondant since mine turned into a cement blob lol. I will play your video as I make this fondant, I have full confidence it will turn out great. Mine needed more water. I can do this! Thank you for this and all your videos. You truly are a gem. 💙
I got you girl! Just add a little at a time (water or sugar depending on if it's dry or wet) to get it to the right consistency. 😊
Thank you for sharing this!
My pleasure!
Ok I tried this for the first time tonight. I had to use a lot of sugar but could be because of where I live. Going to try and cover a cake tomorrow. Your channel has help and pushed me to try new things so thank you and happy new year
You're welcome Kim, Happy New Year to you too!

@@KarolynsKakes 🤣🤣
Very helpful video 👍
Glad it was helpful!🙌
Hi Karrolyn, awesome video, so well explained. Thank you so much for your help. can you one day talk to us about refrigerating fondant cakes? I am concerned about what can happen with the condensation on the fondant. thanks!
Hi Evelyn, here ya go!
ua-cam.com/video/vBKi-O7v98w/v-deo.html
Omg Karolyn! Thank god you made another video on how to make your fondant because I’ve been trying to make it and I was doing it so wrong. Didn’t sift the sugar and the fondant looked like it had a lot of bumps and i was only putting 1 pound of sugar 🤦🏻♀️ and it was getting stuck on the side of the bowl like gum 😭thank you your video. Your the best ❤️🥰
I'm so glad it helped you! It's super frustrating until you figure it out!
@@KarolynsKakes yes it’s super frustrating I’m gonna try it again tomorrow and I will follow your video step by step 🤞🏼
I made my first batch and it’s perfect! Thank you! I added CMC powder but I don’t know why 😂. THANK YOU so much!
Wonderful!🎉🙌
Thanks!
Awww thank you so much, I appreciate you!!🎉
Thx u.. Yrs afters ur video.. It helped me😊
Glad to hear that! You're welcome honey!
Karolyn, you are awesome and I thank you for all your videos! I've watched so many of your videos and learned so much from you! I've made several batches of fondant using your recipes. I've only tried the newer 12 ounce marshmallow one once and it didn't turn out well so I reverted back to your 16 ounce recipe which normally comes out great until this time :( A couple of questions. Why did you switch to the 12 ounce marshmallow recipe? And a question on the batch I just made. I made sure it was wrapping around the dough hook and it seemed fine until I went to use it. Out of the microwave I have stretch and it seems fine but as soon as it cools it breaks so I'm guessing it's too dry? Tylose, no matter how much I add, doesn't fix it.
I felt like 16oz was a lot of marshmallows and I had to use more sugar. So I just prefer to make the smaller batches. Are you adding the light corn syrup?
Very helpful video, thank you! I have two questions at what point would you add food coloring? And do you make the fondant the same way when used to get for figurines or decorations?
Hi Karolyn! I love your videos and the humor you add to them! Can I please ask you two questions about fondant? 1. How do you make a copycat of the Satin Ice gold shimmer? 2. How much cake does a 10 oz. bag of marshmallows cover when complete? Thank you in advance for all your help!
I'm sorry but I'm not sure how to make the gold shimmer fondant!
And I would say that 10oz marshmallows would cover a 9" cake.
Thank you Karolyn! I made your buttercream last weekend using my Walmart shortening and it came out wonderful. I switched to using your recipe because it’s now mid June here in Louisiana and it is HOT!!! Lol. The shortening really helps the buttercream stay firmer in the heat.
Yayyy!! Shortening really helps in the hot months!
Hi there. Your video is awesome.
Thank you so much for making it. I love all your videos.
qq
I added a quarter tsp of Bob Mills gum tex bc I didn't have Tylose.
As soon as I added it, my fondant got really gummy. Like chewing gum.
Any thoughts? Maybe I needed more oil on my hands.
My fondant actually turned out really good in the end. If I could include pictures I would. I just wanted fondant for decorations for my cupcakes.
But for practice I want to make more batches. I'm gonna keep trying. Mine never got really stretchy like yours either. Such a science.
Fun watching your videos.
I never heard of Bob Mills Gum Tex. So I googled it and found Bob Mills Xanthan Gum. Is that what you used? If so, it's not the same thing as Tylose / Gum Tex powder. Xanthan gum thickens liquids and makes them sticky, so that could be your issue! Try this next time, it should work out better!
amzn.to/3ZLWmfU
@@KarolynsKakes yes that's it. Thank you so much! I'll get the other stuff. I get paid Friday. I'm gonna buy you a coffee Friday!
You add Tylose to all your fondant then? Even the fondant you'll use to cover cakes? Another great video-thanks!
Yes I do! It just makes the fondant smoother.
Here's a video explaining it!
ua-cam.com/video/EYaNXTDOkj4/v-deo.html
Very helpful tutorial on fondant. What is the purpose of the corn syrup? At first I thought for sweetness but the powdered sugar is sweet enough. I love the consistency of your fondant. It looks so tasty apposed to store bought. Thank you for sharing and keep on caking 💜
It helps with elasticity! Not necessary to add though. I have just always done it this way!
Good to know thank you for replying 💜
Hi Karolyn! Very helpful video and thanks for explaining in detail. One thing I wanted to comment on is the brand of the sugar and marshmallows: you used two different types which showed it doesn’t matter, it’s the consistency. Correct?
I never had issues with using different brands. I was using Target brand 10X sugar for the longest time and it's never in stock now. So I have been going to Aldi, it's the least expensive at that store!
Hi Karolyn! I love your videos! Question: my fondant seems wet and dry at the same time. Is it possible to over mix it? Thank you!
It's hard to say without seeing it. Usually if it's too wet, it needs more sugar.
I’m like you, there are very few things that I actually measure! Thanks for another great video! Quick question! Lol, do you ever eat cake or have you had enough to last your life time. Sometimes I want to make myself a chocolate cake with chocolate filling and chocolate icing, but I don’t because I know I would eat too much!
It just takes too long to measure! LOL
I'll eat cake occasionally. But it's really the last thing I want because I'm around it all the time! 😂
Lol me too...
I love making them, but honestly, I only eat a Bite or two, to see if I like the recipe or if I got the flavors right.
But mostly, I don't just Get a Slice and sit down and eat cake.
Karolyn! Do you only add tylose when you are using it for decorations on the cake,or do you still add tylose even if you're using it to cover a cake in fondant. THANKS!
I add tylose for decorations and if I'm covering a cake. It just gets the fondant to a better consistency.
Here's a video explaining it!
ua-cam.com/video/EYaNXTDOkj4/v-deo.html
Hi karolyn, I love the channel! I tried making a bow tie tonight with store bought fondant from hobby lobby. I used corn starch but the fondant seemed real dry when using the corn starch. I rolled it back up and put it into a freezer bag and placed it in some tupperware. But how can I make it plyable to set into a bowtie to put on a cake?
You want to add some GumTex / Tylose powder to the fondant rather than corn starch. Corn starch will dry it out.
I also only use marshmallow fondant as I find that store bought fondant is way too soft and never sets as hard as marshmallow fondant when you add the Tylose!
Here's a link to the tylose powder:

@@KarolynsKakes Awesome! Thank you so much for the reply! Love the Channel
How long is unused fondant good for at room temperature?? How long is fondant good for stored in the fridge? How long is it good for stored in the freezer?
Hello, so I’ve seen some of your other videos and when your working with fondant you warm up your fondant and add tylose powder to make it workable. Would you still do that to this fondant when your ready to use it even though you’ve already added those powder? Btw all your videos are so helpful! Thank you for sharing!
Depends on what I'm using it for. If it's to cover a cake, then no. If I need to roll out fondant to get crisp, clean cuts or have something stand on its own, then yes!
@@KarolynsKakes ok gotcha! Thank you
@@KarolynsKakes would you still warm this up the next day before decorating or covering a cake
Do you color pieces of your homemade fondant? And does it change the texture?
Thanks
Yup! I always color it. And if I have to use a lot of coloring, it will make the fondant soft. So I have to add more tylose powder to it to help stiffen it up.
I just made fondant for the first time and it didn't wrap around the hook. I added water, then sugar, then had to add water again... And again. Any problem with doing this too much? I have the larger mixer with the up and down hook, and I think that affected my ability to judge the wetness. I finally just pulled it out and kneaded it. Seems to be ok, maybe a touch too loose as it stuck to the counter a bit and had to keep adding Crisco to the counter. I figure a bit too wet is better than too dry. I guess the more batches you make the better you are able to judge. It's light and maleable and kneads wasiky while sticking together. Well see tomorrow when I attempt to use it for my cake topper and decorations. Can I add more icing sugar at this step if it's needed?
Thanks so much for your tutorials, or I wouldn't have braved making this or making smooth cakes. ❤. My friends and family live my cakes thanks to your videos. I'll buy you a coffee or become a member as soon as I can.
Thank you Lori! Were you scraping the sugar off the sides of the bowl as you were adding more liquid? You may be able to knead in more sugar if it's too sticky. When there is too much liquid, it won't hold its shape and will drag as you try to cut it. You can also add some Gum Tex / Tylose powder to help stiffen it up!
Good Morning Karolyn!
Do you find that jet puff marshmallows don't work as well as the store brands??
They seem to melt differently
I haven't noticed that! I've used quite a few different brands with success.
Where do we buy the Tyler’s Powder? I have never made fondant before but I’m going to try making it. Thanks
They have it on Amazon and at craft stores.
Tylose Powder - amzn.to/3v4uqd9
CMC Powder - amzn.to/4c8YtB1
Why do you put corn syrup in in? This was a great video. My last couple of batches have been too dry and cracking
It gives it elasticity! Try to ease up on the sugar and maybe add a little Tylose as well. That should help!
Hi Karolyn! I just want you to know you’re my friend (in my head) 😂
I’m having a recurring issue while making fondant where the fondant is super sticky and sticking to my fingers when I touch it to check consistency. It is however, wrapping into a ball, but it’s sticking to the counter once the crisco has been absorbed. Any suggestions??? Please, thanks!
Hey bestie! 😂 Try adding a little more powdered sugar before you remove it from the bowl. If it's sticky, it needs more sugar! A little at a time.
@@KarolynsKakes ok I added more, even opened another bag, but then I stopped thinking I was doing “the most” 😂😂😂. I’m going to get this, I’M DETERMINED!!! Thank you so much for ALWAYS responding!!
Thank you for the demonstration of the fondant🙂 My problem now is when I roll my fondant out, there is TONS of airbubbles, If I try to poke them, it won't be pretty´😞 I did not got this the first time I used your recipe, but the last 3 times now, lots of airbubbles and it kills me because I can't use it when it is this much, any suggestions would be welcome
A lot of air bubbles are formed when you are kneading the fondant. If you fold it over and trap air inside, bubbles will form. Try to make sure you're not folding the fondant in half when you knead it. It's more about pushing it together. I'll explain that better the next time I'm filming and kneading!
@@KarolynsKakes Oh, thank you VERY much love!
Hi, does this fondant work for covering and stamping cookies? Also do you have to let fondant rest before making it or can you use straight away? One more question can I use glucose syrup instead of corn syrup? Many Thanks Ariane
You can use this for covering / stamping cookies! I always make fondant at least 4 hours in advance so it has time to settle before I use it. And you can use glucose syrup if desired!
@@KarolynsKakes great thank you 😊
Would you put the tylos powder in if you were making this for a cake a week in advance?
Yes. If you're concerned, maybe add half the amount to the batch and then add more if you need to once you use it.
I don't get corn syrup or shortening where I come from🙃Do I absolutely need the corn syrup? Can I use a very firm white margarine instead of the shortening?
The corn syrup isn't necessary, it just adds a little more elasticity. And the shortening is just to keep it from sticking to my hands and the countertop, so whatever you have that works for that should be good!
Hi, can you place a cake covered by this fondant in the fridge overnight? I have placed fondant covered cakes in the fridge before without any issues but the fondant was commercially bought. Many thanks
Yes! I use this fondant all the time and refrigerate all of my cakes.
@@KarolynsKakes Thank you - I appreciate your getting back to me. :)
Hi karolyn I made some of this yesterday and when I I came to use it this morning its very cheaty to eat should it be like that
What is cheaty?
@@KarolynsKakes sorry it was suppose to say chewy
How long does the fondant last in the container? TY
It can last up to a month if you store it right!
I usually wrap it up in plastic wrap, place that in a ziplock bag, then put that in an airtight container.
What is tylose powder? From Australia, not familiar with it. Thanks
Tylose / Gum Tex / CMC powder. It's basically the same thing. It's a fine powder that you sprinkle a little into the fondant and knead it in there. It helps the fondant stretch and dry harder. It makes it SO much easier to work with!
Hi! Do you think its going to be the same if I make the marshmallow? It's kind of difficult to find it as well as expensive.
Hmmmm, I've never made marshmallow so I don't know how that would work. It seems like it should if you can get the marshmallows to the right consistency.
@@KarolynsKakes Thanks for answering, I'll try if I don't find it cheaper. I must say thanks for all the info that you give us with your unique enthusiasm, this profession is a constantly learning.
Can it be colored while you are mixing it or is it better to color after?
If I'm coloring the entire batch, I'll add the coloring to the melted marshmallows and mix it in before I add it to the sugar. It's hard to gauge the outcome that way though. So if you need a color that is an exact match, then I would add it after mixing.
After mKing and putting in a air tight contaner how is it good for
Thanks
Samantha
I'd say around 3 weeks. If you're not going to use it, you can freeze it!
With this fondant,once you have made your cake and decorated and placed in fridge will the fondant go soft?
I don't have any issues with it getting soft. You do have to make sure you keep it cool once you bring it out of the fridge so condensation doesn't form!
@@KarolynsKakes Thank you so much , much appreciated.
I love your tutorials Karolyn, looking into some of your workshops 😊
Thank God you made this troubleshooting video. I just made your fondant using your updated fondant video. My fondant was nice hot mess lol. I almost threw it out! Then I remembered you made this video so I watched it. I kept on adding a little water or powdered sugar till it finally came together. WHEW LOL. . Yeah I’m with you on not enjoying making fondant. I just finished cleaning up. Start to finish it probably took me 30 mins 😅
I'm so glad it worked for you! It's hard to give exact measurements because it's always different. But you can get it to the right consistency if you just work with it a little!
I’m confused. In an earlier video about making fondant you indicated you added one and a half 12 ounce bags of marshmallows. All the other measurements appear about the same. Can you clarify? I did your recipe with one and a half bags of marshmallows and about a full bad of powdered sugar. It’s beautiful stuff.
Sorry! Sometimes I forget the measurements from previous videos! I found that using around 12 oz is best. I'm always playing around with the ratios to see what gives the best result. I don't mean to confuse you! If the amounts you're using right now works, then stick with that!
@@KarolynsKakes no worries. I couldn’t figure out why I had to add so much powdered sugar, but now I realize I basically doubled the recipe. Love, love your fondant.
What does it mean if you have small lumps in it still ? Can you fix it or do I need to start over ?
Ugh it's the worst! You have to sift the sugar to get the lumps out. If it's really bad, you may have to just make a new batch.
@@KarolynsKakes ok thanks 😊
I have been trying to watch how you knead the fondant because I get too many air bubbles the way I do it, is that because the way I knead the fondant?
OMG someone else said the same thing! I'll explain it in a video soon!
How much does one batch of fondant cover on a cake. Thank you, 😀
It covers a 10" round cake that's approx 5" high.
Can I add a wee bit of vanilla extract to the mixture, adjusting the water…???
Definitely!
Does coloring the fondant change the taste?
I don’t think it does.
I’ve been buying Fondant for the 7 years I’ve been in the decorating business. Now that everything is so expensive, I decided to try this.
P.S. it’s a messy job. Lol
OMG I freakin HATE making fondant! But it really is the best. It's much easier to work with, tastes great and is a lot cheaper to make!
Mine doesn’t have stretch, but it rolls out pretty good. What did I do wrong?
Did you add the Tylose / Gum Tex powder to it? That helps it stretch!
@@KarolynsKakes yes, I used cmc powder, and it got firm, but it tears when I try to stretch.
I don't know if you have ever tried your hand at other stuff in the kitchen - but it appears to be about the same consistency of a yeast dough?!?!?
Not sticky wet, but not crumbling dry. Stretchy, and holds it shape. Kinda smooth and soft to the touch.
Anyways,I was here to watch one last time before doing this myself. I finally got a cake order that I can use the fondant on.
So off to the kitchen I go... Lmao wish me luck
I have the hardest time making fondant 😞 I just don’t have the eye to know the right consistency 😩
When I put it on a cake it tears or it gets elefante skin💔💔💔 some times even the Wilton fondant also gives me issues 🤦🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤔
Oh no! I have to work with fondant before I cover a cake with it. Here's a video explaining that!
ua-cam.com/video/yZTS1KoBuXk/v-deo.html
How long does the fondant last ..?
Wrapped up really well at room temp about 3-4 weeks. I have heard people freeze it for up to 6 months!
How long your fondant last on room temperature
If it's wrapped up really well (wrap in plastic wrap, put in a ziplock bag, and put in an airtight container), it lasts at least 3-4 weeks!
This is a great video but is this a silly question - where is the actual recipe? Did you provide a written version or just shared verbally on the video?
I don't have it written anywhere.
12oz. Marshmallows
1 Tbsp light corn syrup
1 Tbsp Water
Melt in Microwave for 1:45 on high.
Stir and add any coloring to the melted marshmallows (if desired)
Sift approx. 1 pound powdered sugar in a mixing bowl.
Sift another pound of powdered sugar into a separate bowl.
Add melted marshmallows to mixing bowl.
Cover melted marshmallows with 1/2 of the remaining powdered sugar.
Mix and add more water or sugar as needed.
I hope that helps!
@@KarolynsKakes much appreciated 👍🏻🤓
What is typos powder?
Tylose powder / Gum Tex powder / CMC powder...it's basically the same thing. In small amounts, it allows your fondant to stretch and be more pliable. In large amounts, it stiffens the fondant so it can dry hard.
I am sure temperatures and humidity changes texture.
you've got a good point
It does! For icing too!
And icing images...
Does anyone know if this recipe works with vegan marshmallows? A customer is requesting vegan for her decorations.
When I had someone request vegan decorations, I used Satin Ice fondant instead.
A lady says she never put her fondant in the fridge it is ok or not please
Karolyn keeps hers in an airtight container for a couple of weeks at a time, but she stated that she pretty much uses hers within a week. She says if you need to store it more than a week, to double wrap it and keep it in the airtight container. Since she slightly microwaves it before kneading and using it, I don't think there is harm in refrigerating it. I am a newbie at this but I hoped this helped.
I followed your recipe. But my fondant sucks. It keeps breaking apart. I’ve added a little bit of everything to it. It’s still breaking apart. I’ve microwaved it. I’ve let it rest. It’s still breaking apart when I try to need it and roll it out Help please!!!!😢
It sounds like it's too dry. You may have had to add more water when you made it.
Yah! You used my suggestion of a wet towel! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ I feel so honored! Lol what did you think?
It really is so much better! 🙌🙌
It's a fantastic tip! I just started doing this and asked myself, "Why didn't I do this sooner!" Thanks for helping me keep my kitchen clean! :D
Thanks for posting I have always made my kids cakes. This year I have a request to make my first fondant cake, into a baseball hat 🧢
You got this! Here's a video I made showing how to make a hat cake:
ua-cam.com/video/Gp_3ZNGOBrU/v-deo.html
@@KarolynsKakes thanks so much!
Has anyone ever tried it with vegan marshmallows?
Do you ever flavor your fondant.?
I personally don't, it tastes good the way it is! You can add a little flavoring if you prefer though.
Need help! Why does my marshmallow fondant look like a sponge?
Oh no! Did you add corn syrup? Did you add Tylose/ Gum Tex Powder?
@Karolyns Kakes originally I forgot the corn syrup, added it after I microwaved the marshmallows.
I wonder if the people who are annoyed that you don't use measuring spoons and cups is because they can't manage to eyeball it out.
Hakuna matata
That's why I always give an estimate of how many teaspoons / cups.
I hate sifting icing sugar !!! If there was an electrical gadget to do it for me that would make me very happy. Is anyone in the comments as lazy as me?
OMG I'm the same! It makes a freakin MESS in my kitchen and it's so annoying!!
A regular flour sifter clogs like crazy. It’s best to use a strainer like Karolyn showed. It really takes less time to sift through a strainer than a regular flour sifter. Trust me on this one.
Yippee Yay, Yippee Yay, Yippee Yay Yay!
First Try! Nailed it! Thanks to @karolyncakes I watched a couple different videos a couple times, ok so quite a few Times! So much so, I remembered it all and didn't even need the instructions I wrote down to follow.
And I have a couple batches of some of the Prettiest And Perfect Fondant!
Got my cakes baked on a literally last min cake, Buttercream Frosting made, and in the morning going to stack frost cover a 4layer cake in fondant. Going to make some pandas and flowers to decorate it with.
(Took a order last night, so worried as I already have a full week, but it's due Thursday morning)
No time for mistakes, but I am confident all will be good
This makes me so happy!! 🎉🙌💜
@@KarolynsKakes me too I will send you the one I just finished today I can't wait to try it with purple and black. And red and white with gold...
Thank you... I never thought I could do it. I wanted to learn but never thought I would be able to. Self doubt is the worst... But thank you for helping get over my fears
