Cute little fondant baby.


Despite its appearance, this is NOT a hunk of bread dough. Nope! This is a portion of freshly-made Sweet T's signature fondant. It is just like a little baby. It must be cared for or it will not be able to become something beautiful in the future. After being made, this little fondant baby must be wrapped up tight in a blanket of plastic wrap. Then wrapped again, just to make sure it stays moist. After that, it must be placed in a zip top bag and allowed to sleep for at least one night. After a bit of beauty rest, this little baby is ready to be kneaded, colored, rolled, cut, etc. and placed on cupcakes or cakes. Finally, when all grown up, it will bring joy and a smile to someone's life and will taste delicious too. It's so hard to say goodbye to my little fondant babies. But, like any mother, it is so satisfying to see a little one make its way in the world and become something spectacular!
