Ready-to-use fondant for covering and modeling, red shade

The Red Colour Mill Fondant is a professional-quality ready-to-use fondant, colored throughout to ensure a uniform, stable color true to the final appearance. Flexible texture, controlled elasticity, clean rolling without cracking: designed for covering layer cakes, modeling figurines, and creating raised decorations.

Instructions for Use

1. Bring to room temperature: take the fondant out 30 minutes before use to let it reach room temperature.
2. Kneading: knead for 1 to 2 minutes between your hands to soften the fondant before rolling.
3. Rolling out: roll out on a work surface lightly dusted with powdered sugar or cornstarch, to 3 mm thickness for covering, 2 mm for fine decorations.
4. Covering: lift the fondant using the rolling pin, place it on the cake previously coated with ganache or buttercream. Smooth with a smoother in circular motions.

Patissland Tip for Red Fondant

For a clean cover without folds or cracks: 1/ the cake must be perfectly cold and smooth (ganache set), 2/ knead the fondant 1 to 2 minutes to bring it to temperature, 3/ roll out to 3 mm thickness on a surface larger than the cake (diameter + 2x height + 5 cm), 4/ smooth the top first then work down the sides gently pressing with a smoother. Air bubbles can be removed with a very fine needle.
