2

Next, place over low heat in a water bath and add corn syrup and shortening, stirring until dissolved.

3

Remove from heat and gradually add sugar until a dough forms (if it becomes too hard, use less sugar; I used 1.87 pounds, but it may vary by brand).

4

Once ready, spread on a surface and knead until it reaches the right consistency to roll out.

5

Roll out the fondant and apply to your cake.
