Marshmallow Fondant Spongebob Cake
This lemon flavored SpongeBob cake was made by a friend for her son’s 6th birthday. She made her own marshmallow fondant and swears it is fairly easy to make and work with. I look forward to trying it soon.
If you search the internet you will find different versions of Marshmallow Fondant Recipe, here’s one from All Recipes:
INGREDIENTS
* 1/4 cup butter
* 1 (16 ounce) package miniature marshmallows
* 4 tablespoons water
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 2 pounds confectioners’ sugar, divided
DIRECTIONS
1. Place the butter in a shallow bowl, and set aside.
2. Place the marshmallows in a large microwave-safe bowl, and microwave on High for 30 seconds to 1 minute to start melting the marshmallows. Carefully stir the water and vanilla extract into the hot marshmallows, and stir until the mixture is smooth. Slowly beat in the confectioners’ sugar, a cup at a time, until you have a sticky dough. Reserve 1 cup of powdered sugar for kneading. The dough will be very stiff.
3. Rub your hands thoroughly with butter, and begin kneading the sticky dough. As you knead, the dough will become workable and pliable. Turn the dough out onto a working surface dusted with confectioners’ sugar and continue kneading until the fondant is smooth and no longer sticky to the touch, 5 to 10 minutes.
4. Form the fondant into a ball, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight. To use, allow the fondant to come to room temperature, and roll it out onto a flat surface dusted with confectioners’ sugar.

You’re so talented. It looks amazing!
Everytime I have hand painted fondant with gel food coloring it gets a sheen to it. These photos where taken shortly after the cake was complete so it was still a bit wet. My cakes never seem to make it more than a day so I can’t say the shine would last for a long period of time.

i love to toast marshmallows in the fire, they taste twice as better when they are burnt ,–
Just what I was looking for – thank you.
if i make this type of fondant instead of using marshmallows can i just use the marshmallow cream stuff that is really nasty that comes in a jar? or is critical that i melt the marshmallows? very very thanks for the post.
What a great idea! I’m going to try to make this for my nephews birthday party
