Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Gather all ingredients and ensure the butter is softened. (5 minutes)

Step
2 mins

In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, sweetened condensed milk, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla extract. (2 minutes)

03

Step
8 mins

Mix with a sturdy spatula or stand mixer until the mixture comes together into a smooth, pliable dough with the consistency of modeling clay. (8 minutes)

04

Step
3 mins

If the fondant is too moist, gradually knead in additional confectioners' sugar until the desired consistency is achieved. (3 minutes)

05

Step
1 mins

Lightly dust a clean work surface with confectioners' sugar. (1 minute)

06

Step
5 mins

Roll out the fondant to your desired thickness using a rolling pin. (5 minutes)

07

Step

Carefully drape the fondant over your cake or cupcakes, smoothing out any air bubbles or imperfections. (Variable)

For colored fondant, add gel food coloring a drop at a time and knead thoroughly until evenly distributed.
If the fondant becomes too stiff while working, microwave it in 5-second intervals until it softens slightly.
Store leftover fondant tightly wrapped in plastic wrap at room temperature for up to a week.
