I have never had a problem when I use MM fondant only the Satin Ice. I think maybe the marshmallows help with the elasticity. I think I will make my own from now on.

: The only thing I can think of is that you rolled it out on confectioners sugar or cornstarch and used too much. I roll my MMF out on Crisco and have never had a problem.

: I purchased Satin Ice fondant for a wedding cake and after I cover the cakes and started decorating I noticed that some of the tiers were cracking. Can anyone tell me what might cause this? I have never had this problem when I use MM fondant but since it was a wedding I wanted to make sure that the fondant had good flavor. The couple had someone pick up the cake so I hope it made it the to wedding in one piece. I guess I will see how well the Stress Free supports that I purchased work out.
