Since I've found your blog, I've been oohing and aahing over nearly everything you've made, and tried a couple of things.<br /><br />I cannot wait until I have a proper kitchen with better tools and more time to bake! Also, I made some of the fosting for cookies, and microwaved an egg white for 55 seconds (until temperature was above 160F, keep it below 175F) as per Joy of Cooking, and the icing worked very well. The technique, however, left something to be desired.AnaMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04465405043936026373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2434548298509198554.post-84879075285475273352010-01-26T18:44:34.144-08:002010-01-26T18:44:34.144-08:00An hour? *echoing others amazement* You put Martha...An hour? *echoing others amazement* You put Martha Stewart to shame woman.

I've made gumpaste, but not fondant from scratch. <br /><br />I have a lovely cake supply lady who offers it pre-made in bulk, so I go grab a couple of pounds of fondant from her when I am in need. <br /><br />I'm not sure which brand she uses, or if she makes it in house. I'll ask her next time I visit (which should be sometime this week) and post the brand in this thread.Ms. Humblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06960224421093634330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2434548298509198554.post-68429595182321021852010-01-26T16:37:46.340-08:002010-01-26T16:37:46.340-08:00The frosting here couldn't of been much easier...The frosting here couldn't of been much easier.
