Satin Ice Fondant for Cake Decorating, Ivory (5 Pound)

I got this fondant for my brother's wedding. I won't be using it until this weekend, so the only things I can comment on right now are the taste and the color and texture. First off, right out of the bucket, this fondant was very stretchy and easy to work with, I pulled out a chunk just to see out it worked, before I ordered more. I found it very nice, and I'm just beginning to work with fondant. I was very concerned with the fact that it was being delivered on a 90 degree day, but it stayed gummy and workable and didn't melt or stick to anything. The color was gorgeous. I was a little worried about it leaving a blue or green color residue or not quite being black, but it's a great color and didn't bleed everywhere. Lastly, the taste, I tried it and I have to say this is some of the best tasting fondant. I liked it so much, that I ordered the white and I plan on making the flowers out of it, because I know people will love them. *UPDATE* Worked very well. I made many flowers and other decorations for the cake with this. Everyone thought it tasted great and looked wonderful. My only complaint is that it didn't dry as hard as other products I have used, so I had to be very careful when moving them around as they easily lost shape or fell apart. I'm not sure if this was because of the fondant or because of the heat, even though i made sure they were in a cool, dry place. My other issues is that no matter what I tried, it was very sticky and stuck to the mat that I was rolling it out on. Once I let it sit out for 15min or so, it got much easier to work with and I was able to actually roll and cut ribbons without them breaking or sticking. Overall, I would buy this again, just takes a little bit of getting used to.

This was my first time using fondant and I’m so happy with how it went. I don’t have anything to compare it to but I thought this product was really easy to work with and looks great. The package was well sealed and the fondant was not too hard when I started kneading it. It became really pliable after working with it. I used the entire two pound package on this cake for reference on how much you need. It also tastes really good!

Color is beautiful! Black fondant drys faster than most other colors so when using have a plan and move quickly.

This was a great product! I was able to create pearl molds for my macaron. After trying with pearl sprinkles I realized someone might crack a tooth and fondant was an amazing solution!

Easy to work with! I got the vanilla flavor. I suggest the buttercream one. This one taste too sweet and not natural.

My first time using fondant for decorating. it worked great. it was easy to roll out nice and thin. It molded easily over my forms, worked with fingers and tools. I used a little water to smooth out the seams and rough patches. Nice satin finish and it tastes good, too! Nicely packaged in a plastic bag and shipped in a plastic bucket. I highly recommend it, because I don't have the tools or experience to make my own fondant

I’ve been making cakes on and off for the past 8 years. I even once had my very own at home run business and did extremely well for myself. For the majority, of my previous orders, I have only used Wilton brand fondant. Now I’ve heard this is the worst kind of fondant/difficult to work with. I used it out of need because it was available easily locally. I never had any issues using Wilton. It always worked well, never gave me any issues. Fast forward to the present, I took on an order for the first time in while as I work full time out of the house now, and I decided to order satin ice, in black. It seemed like a dream as it was already colored and everyone always praises how great satin ice is. Well let me tell you, I am very skilled and know how to make / fix just about anything. I was able to make it work, but it took me forever!!!!! The fondant kept cracking, showing elephant skin defect, ripping at the bottoms, very difficult to smooth onto cakes. I was thrilled at the end of the cake, but I was still able to get it to look good. I’d give this fondant 0 stars, negative stars. This is my first review on this website and I order from Amazon A LOT!!! Honestly, I haven’t used any other but Wilton always did the job and always made my job easy. I will be purchasing Wilton again from now as before. Very disappointed with this product! What a waste of time.

Satin Ice is the best fondant around. I've been using Satin Ice for 5 years now on all of my cakes my cakes. It is nice and smooth, soft and pliable. It doesn't require much kneading. The amount of kneading time is considerably less. It's a little more sticky than other types of fondant but you can keep it from sticking to your hands by rubbing some crisco on your hands before working with the fondant. It rolls out easily on the mat, but be warned you really need to sprinkle on the powdered sugar before you try to roll it onto your roller to put it on the cake. I live in a very humid environment and this fondant works well. I love that I can order my most common colors and not have to worry about then dies affecting the texture of my fondant. I have been purchasing my fondant at a local bakery store, but when they did not have the product in stock I checked and found it on Amazon. To my surprise it was much cheaper than what I have been paying, so I will be ordering from now own. It's exactly what I would have picked up at the store

Service was good product was good and delivery was good as well
