Step 23 of 34

Step 24 of 34
Mix in 400 g. of icing sugar little by little while stirring. Once the fondant is dense enough to mould, dust the table with icing sugar, take the fondant out of the bowl and make a pizza-like pie.

Sasha: If you are not doing so already, use a hand mixer with dough hooks attached to it. You should mix it in the bowl, I trust you do so? I don't experience any problems when making the fondant.

The vanilla is only there to make the butter not taste like butter 😄

Right, a crumb coating but it's not considered buttercream right? Or does the vanilla cut out the butter taste? I am imagining it tasting like a glob of butter haha. 😂

Exactly. It prevents the cake fillings from showing through the fondant :)
