Fondant Cake

I made this in cake class today. It's the second fondant cake I've made. I made one a few years ago for my oldest daughters b-day. I love the neat crisp look the fondant creates!

Fondant icing is not only fun to work with, it makes a beautiful cake creation! The draw back of using fondant is it tastes really bad. The fondant is mainly made up of melted marshmellows and powdered sugar (and a few liquid ingredients), which leaves me wondering why it has such an unsavory flavor. I have yet to hear of anyone I know who likes the taste of it.
