I have made this recipe three times. It's ok. It came out ok every time.
|
You'r going to need
2 lb. of confecioner's sugar ( its about 8 cups) sifted 1 Tbs. Glycerin 2 Tbs. vegateble shortening any kind of flavor 1/4 C. cold water 1 tablespoon + 2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin
1/2 C. of glucose or corn syrup
and any color that you may want |
|
Add the gelatin to the water and let it get set to semi firm stage |
|
Then you can put it in the microwave for about 30 second intervals
until the gelatin dissolves |
|
Add the shortening and mix |
|
At this time you can sift half of your sugar into a medium size bowl or as I have into a mixer |
|
Right before you'r shortening melts your going to add it to your sugar |
|
Make a well in the middle of the sugar |
|
Pour the mixture in |
|
Mix on low at first, until it looks combine add more of the sugar until you'r mixer is about to struggle |
|
It should look a little like this. Way to sticky!! |
|
Flop the mixture onto your surface thats lightly dusted with powder sugar. And kneed the rest of the sugar until its not sticking to your hands anymore. |
|
Make a ball out of your fondant and lighlty coat it with shortening |
