Buddy Valastro Foods Green Fondant (Vanilla, 1 Pound)

This is the first time that I’ve used this brand but I was really disappointed in you have to work quickly to try superquick and ends up looking like rotten Play dough - There was two packages both were equally disappointing- I bought all the other colors in wilson brand I wanted a light blue ordered this and the fondant inside was quite a bit darker than advertised- I used this as the base layer on a fondant mini cake and used the extra to make flowers for the second cake- But the picture is an example on how it cracked - On the Cake that I used this for the base i had to really fill in cover pieces - I definitely would not recommend this product- I made the cakes the night before the party so they should’ve at least lasted a couple days not overnight crackage !!!!

I’ve worked with fondant that was a real workout. This was soft and workable without any kneading at all! It rolls out like a dream. Making shark teeth for my Shark Week cake was a breeze! It stays soft so you don’t need a saw to cut through it and it tastes really good (really sweet, but it’s FONDANT)! Although I didn’t need to, I imagine it would be really easy to color with a drop or two of gel food coloring and a little kneading to mix it in. Just make sure you take what you need out of the container and keep the rest covered tightly so it doesn’t dry out. Will definitely purchase again.

I used this Fondant to cover a cake. I needed a similar to hot pink color so I had to purchase this. I covered a tall 8" cake and it had very poor "elephant skin" texture after coverage. Plus tore in some areas. It was a one shot coverage so I had to give the lady a discount when I gave her the cake. See noticed it too. Smells like playdoh also. Only plus side is the container amount was enough to cover 8" cake and 12" outside of board with still some leftover.

Totally unsatisfied with this fondant, it was very old, and completely DRIED OUT. My cake kept bulging, & wrinkling upThe fact the it cannot be returned is even more disappointing 😕 , upon ordering 5 different 5lb. BucketsThe 2 tier cake was used with Satin iceThe red cake & yellow cake was used with Wilton(SEE THE DIFFERENCE HERE) !!!!I could not use any of it, I had to take several of my cakes apart because it kept tearing and drying out as I rolled it out. Not only that it had a big glotch of something as a jelly bean substance mixed in between EACH Bucket.This is very frustrating, that I cannot even contact the seller, nor return it.Please do not purchase this product, if you want a nice, pretty cake ...USE WILTON

Arrived pretty hard. After watching what felt like 200 YouTube videos on how to use hard fondant, I learned that you can kneed it and it becomes softer.. the warmth from your hands makes it easier to work with and roll out.It basically tastes like a slightly sweeter marshmallow. Which some people enjoyed but it wasn't for me.Do not let your fondant sit out after you roll it out. It gets stiff pretty quick. So roll and placebos your cake right away.Also, you'll need to use a buttcream on your cake first in order for the fondant to stick.. I cursed a lot and it took me 4 hours, but it came out kinda cool.Good luck.

I was so disappointed with this fondant. It arrived packaged in the container as shown. When I opened it up it was wrapped in a blue plastic bag (not closed or sealed) when I went to use the Fondant, the edges were dried out and when I rolled the fondant it started to crumb up. Even while using the fondant it dried out and cracked way too quickly and easily. I was able to use it for the birthday cake decoration I needed but I am not happy with the results and will not be buying this brand again.

En el clima de Puerto Rico funciona perfecto. No se pega al rodillo, no se rompe al ponerlo. Súper fácil de usar. Perfecto para los familiares que estamos intentando algo especial para los nuestros sin salir de casa en medio de la Pandemia, que no somos profesionales, sino que aprendemos viendo YouTube e inventamos para hacer feliz a todos en casa.

I bought the red fondant to try to replicate the masterpieces I've seen on the Food Network. As someone who has never used fondant before I have to say that the Buddy Valastro fondant put all my fears to rest! This stuff is so thick and smooth. My family was so impressed with the cake I decorated!
