Fondant Question...

I have a Fondant question...


Is it possible/easy to use rolled fondant in candy molds? I have a present candy mold I used to make chocolate candies.


I was wanting to fill the fondant lined molds with a cake/frosting mixture (bake cake as directed, and when cooled mix with frosting) I saw here.


I'm not sure though. I've looked online on other sites but I can't find any information. Help please! Thanks.

I really don't see why you couldn't do this, Madalena. I think it may depend on the particular fondant you make.


I saw a rolled fondant at Candyland Crafts called Satin Ice. It is extremely pliable and able to be rolled quite thin and still be handled.


I imagine that's what you'd be aiming for with using it in molds. In fact, they mention fondant molds on their fondant tools and accessories page, so it must be 'do-able.'


Give it a try and let us know how it turns out. You've got my curiosity going. Has anyone else used fondant to make filled candies with molds?

Have fun!
