How to Warm Up Fondant (4 Steps)
Water, corn syrup and sugar are the three ingredients that comprise fondant. Fondant is often used to cover cakes, candies and other sweet confections. Warm fondant becomes soft, and it is easier to work with than when it dries out and becomes stiff. When you warm fondant, it's important to be vigilant so you don't overheat it, which can cause it to buckle.
