Recipe Summary Quick Pour Fondant Icing

This is a great fondant recipe that can be tinted with paste food color if desired. Pour over the top of cakes or petit fours to make a perfectly smooth and glossy surface.

Ingredients | Vegan Fondant Icing Recipe Uk

6 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted

½ cup water

2 tablespoons light corn syrup

1 teaspoon almond extract

Directions

In a saucepan, combine confectioners' sugar, water and corn syrup. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until it reaches a temperature of 92 degrees F (33 degrees C.) Mixture should be thin enough to pour, but thick enough to coat cake. Stir in the almond extract.

To cover cake: frost cake smoothly with buttercream (see Editor's Note) and place on a cooling rack with a cookie sheet underneath. Pour fondant over iced cake, flowing from center and moving out in a circular motion. Touch up sides with a spatula.

Excess fondant can be stored, tightly covered, in the refrigerator for about four weeks. Reheat over a double boiler just until pourable.

For best results, cakes or petits fours should be covered with a thin layer of seedless jam, almond paste, or a perfectly smooth layer of frosting before covering it with the fondant. The fondant will give the cake a smooth, glossy surface.

For Chocolate Poured Fondant: follow recipe as directed, but increase water by 2 tablespoons. After fondant is heated, stir in 3 ounces of melted unsweetened or bittersweet chocolate, then add flavoring.
