Renshaw - Extra Fondant
Renshaw Ivory Fondant 1 kg
Warm ivory shade from the Renshaw range, a soft alternative to pure white, 1 kg.
Renshaw Ivory Fondant 1 kg offers a cream shade that is slightly warmer than pure white, without turning distinctly yellow. Its firm, elastic Extra range texture is ideal for smooth covering and precise modeling.
This shade is particularly popular for classic wedding cakes and vintage decorations, where pure white can appear too cool next to lace or gold accents.

Recommended applications
- Traditional wedding cakes: classic weddings, a warm alternative to pure white.

Instructions
- Conditioning: remove the fondant from its packaging 15 to 30 minutes before use so it reaches 18 to 22 °C.
- Kneading: knead for 1 to 2 minutes to soften it. If it remains firm, microwave it for 5 to 10 seconds.
- Rolling: dust the work surface with powdered sugar or cornstarch, never flour. Roll out to a thickness of 3 to 4 mm.
- Covering: place the fondant over a cake already coated with ganache or smooth, chilled buttercream, then smooth the top before the sides.
- Finishing: trim the excess with a knife or fondant wheel, then smooth once more with a fondant smoother to remove air bubbles.
Store at room temperature (15 to 22 °C), in its original airtight packaging, protected from light and heat. Do not refrigerate: moisture makes the fondant sweat and become sticky on the surface. Once opened, wrap the remainder in plastic wrap, place it in an airtight container, and use within 2 to 3 weeks.

Frequently asked questions
How much ivory fondant is needed for a wedding cake?
Allow 750 g for a 20 cm diameter cake and 1 kg for 25 to 28 cm. For a tiered cake, add the requirements for each tier and allow a 20% margin.
What is the difference between Renshaw ivory and white?
Ivory is a warmer cream shade than pure white, achieved through a slight recipe adjustment rather than a strong colorant. White remains the most neutral shade and the easiest to recolor afterward.
Does Renshaw ivory contain a declared synthetic colorant?
The supplier does not provide a specific E number for this cream shade; to be cautious, we do not state one here. Check the label on the package received, which is authoritative in case of doubt or allergy.
