I have never worked with fondant before.
But I kinda liked it.
I am rolling out fondant for ‘petit fours’.
If you clicked on the link above you saw that I chose the easy version and used Oreo Cakesters.
Now that I have a little experience under my belt, (not to mention a few Oreo Cakesters, yummy!) I just might try and make them from scratch next time.
I’m pretty sure that there is supposed to be a smooth edge and no folds at the bottom.
Oh well.
I have a theme in mind.. can you guess? 🙂
Listen. I have to be honest.
I tried to be hip and cool and make something very festive and seasonal.
But I cant!
I don’t like bats. I don’t like spiders. So I knew if I was going to be making them they had to be pretty.
I do not want to eat (much less look at) a scary spider or a rabies infested bat!
So I made them white.
These are my petit fours.
Halloween style.
I am pretty sure thats an oxymoron of some sort.
This is my version of a spider. White fondant covered in white sprinkles.
Although I think fondant tastes like poo, it was really fun to work with!
In addition, a sweet reader pointed me in the direction of her homemade marshmallow version.
I just might have to try it.
Then maybe, I can actually eat what I make.
STA-INK-IN CUTE!!!! I am not a fondant fan either, but they are dang cute! 🙂 lo
Oh, and Tina, I already ditto’d your statement in an email last week when a STATE FREAKING SENATOR asked for her information! I think she will make a name for herself, we just have to nudge a little! I told her to make cookie business cards!!! GO TINA!!!!!
You could totally be a professional baker if you wanted to be! Actually, I thought you were, until five minutes ago when you said you weren’t!
PS I love your little petit fours! They are adorable! I am also going to try to your rainbow cake recipe for a friend’s birthday this week. I’m scared. But I will let you know how it goes!
Sarah –
It’s totally not hard at all, just really time consuming.
You are SOOOO awesome! I can’t believe how awesome you are! Those are WAY better than the little squares on the link!!
I feel like I leave the same comment every time, but here it goes again…
I am so impressed! These look absolutely amazing!
I was going to suggest the Marshmallow fondant too….but someone beat me to it I see….
VERY CUTE!
Your petit fours are stunning! So perfect! I love your choice of decor for Halloween!
PS… There is a little something something for you here
