This was my first attempt at making a cake and decorating in fondant. I bought a package of fondant and was surprised to find out how terrible this stuff tasted. When i think of cake my mind tends to wander to Willy Wonka's chocolate room where everything is edible and delicious! so i scoured the Internet to find a solution to the inedible icing. i stumbled upon a YouTube video that described a fondant made of marshmallow. i watched and watched and watched again until i built up enough courage to try making it myself. After two hours and a powdered sugar coating on the entire kitchen I was left with a small and barely manageable ball of "fondant". so i took what i had and started working with it. the taste was great but the consistency was that of dried up play-doh so i set back to work adding a few touches of my own, and after a ton of experiments i created a recipe worthy of the chocolate room. after that it the cake practically made itself. it was chocolate cake with a butter cream filling that was pretty tasty!
