I use fondant just because it makes the cake look nice but not very many people eat it or even like it. You can however flavor it. I've flavored mine with lemon/orange/almond. You do have to soften it first by placing it in the microwave for 5 seconds at a time until it is really pliable. I tell you it is so much easier to work with that way. Making your own is no big deal either. Anyone try covering their cakes with molding chocolate?

its not disgusting...but well Not very tasty!! Just taste like some thing sugary blandish. MarshMallow Fondant(MMF) is wayyyyyy way better! Super easy to make!!

I actually made marshmallow fondant and it wasn't too bad. It wasn't as bad as people said, but I'm more of buttercream guy. I agree people like fondant because of the smooth and satiny appearance.

From what I understand, some fondants are less palatable than others. I made a Marshmallow fondant that I think taste's really good! It's very sweet and sugary though, and as with everything it depends on personal taste--I know some people hate that kind of thing (super sugary). I'm afraid that taste is not the reason fondant is used though. Just how smooth and satiny it is.

I heard fondant tastes disgusting. Is this true?
