ROLLED FONDANT

Steps:

• Pour water into a microwave safe bowl.
• Add gelatin and let sit for 5 minutes.
• Microwave for 20 second intervals until gelatin is dissolved.
• Add corn syrup and stir with fork.
• Add shortening and stir until melted.
• If shortening doesn't melt, microwave for 10 second intervals.
• Add flavoring(s).
• Pour your powdered sugar into a large bowl, making a well in the center.
• Add liquid mixture to powdered sugar.
• Using a greased wooden spoon carefully fold powdered sugar.
• Turn out fondant on to a greased surface and knead like bread dough.
• If fondant is dry add more shortening.
• If fondant is too sticky add more powdered sugar 1 tbsp at a time.
• Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and thin place in a zip lock bag; even better if you can vacuum seal it.
• Let sit for 24 hours; if you don't it will be too soft and sticky.
