Nicholas Lodge has some really good products, I believe. Try that.

How about you stop whining and think about what you’re complaining about. “Waaaahhhh. She won’t give me a recipe for free that she had to pay to get.” Anyone involved in pastry can tell you we don’t make oodles of money. She is helping a colleague boost her sales. Also, why would she freely give you information that she had to pay to learn?

Hello to all. I just bought the dvd that gives the recipe for white chocolate fondant. It is an excellent dvd. I haven’t tried the recipe yet, but was so thrilled to read that Louise did. Now I’m really going to have to give it a try for myself… Thanks, Louise, for your input. Really appreciate it.

i find this very very unhelpful because this is a baking blog! you have to share the recipes or else its pointless. Think about it, you dont go online to a baking blog to hear about recipes you go on to find recipes, so this is just annoying.

I paid around thirty dollars for the Jennifer Dontz DVD and its the absolute best thing I have ever spent money on that has helped me improve my skills and confidence when it come to working with fondant……. Im just a beginner…. I have no ties to jennifer except that she is always willing to answer questions about anything you see on her DVDs.

Hi Louise ,

I really love your web. I need to make a birthday cake to my best friend. Can I cover a sponge cake (+ fresh fruit) covered with the white chocolate fondant and put it in fridge?

Just want to let everyone know that I purchased the DVD with the white chocolate fondant recipe from Jennifer Dontz. I found the DVD extremely useful. The chocolate fondant was very easy to work with and the taste was great. (I used it to make my daughter’s 6th birthday cake.) The DVD had some very helpful hints regarding placing the fondant on the cake and getting it to look perfect, plus a few other great tips. I did post a pick of the cake on my blog… http://www.paige-reese.blogspot.com. i would like to say “thank you” to Louise for posting the info on cakejournal as it worked out perfectly. Good to know that cakejournal has accurate/reliable info. Thanks, Janeen

I love white chocolate fondant…Fondant, as we know it, originated in Europe in the 18th century. It looks so royal. I need that recipe

Thanks

Hi!
This is my best advice when using other brands than Pettinice with my recipes. Try the exact same brands first, otherwise, you won’t know how they should come out or perform. Then once you done that, try other brands. I do know Satin Ice is hit and miss. I don’t think they have a consistent product from batch to batch. Pettinice is very different than Wilton. I personally have not tried other brands just because I’m so thrilled with the way the Pettinice performs. I appreicate not posting my recipe. With the investment I have into the DVDs…. one needs to recoup that Feel free to e-mail me any questions, cakebabe1@aol.com I use Pettinice and Mercken’s super white chocolate (candy melts) for both my semi-homemade white chocolate fondant and for my pearl clay. Pearl clay is what I make all my pearls, pressed lace, side ribbons and more out of. It’s almost all chocolate and very leatherlike in consistency. But, it’s not plain modeling chocolate.

In the 80′s we did not have pkg. rolled fondant available. A teacher told me to use the Wilton’s fondant recipe, out of their year book, and make a recipe of Wilton’s Modeling Candy Recipe (a.k.a. candy clay). Mixed portions together to get a better tasting fondant. Really had to work with both to get the right consistency. Recipes are still in the Wilton’s Year Books but I use the premade Wilton Rolled Fondant as it it availabe everywhere and it works out great.

Stephanie D: The recipe from Jennifer Dontz cant be posted. But that recipe is really good and good to work with.
If you are having trouble with cracking fondant. I would say that your fondant may be a bit dry. If it cracks you can knead in a little white fat. I have not tried to add gum paste powder.

Hanna: I have never tried working with rolled buttercream fondant. But when I make figurines and so I always knead in a little tylo powder. This will make it more stiff.

Astrid: Send your question to Jennifer. Im sure she can help you out. I have not tried to freeze mine yet.

Janeen: So far I have only tried to work with the Pettinice and other brands but not wilton. There are a big difference with texture and flavor. I know that Jennifers recipe dont work well with Satin Ice.

Hi there: Does anybody know what the difference between Pettinice Fondant and Wilton’s (for example) Is it just flavor/texture. Thanks very much!!

Hi hi,

I follow this blog for some time now and i love it, thank you so much for all you input and information that you share with us.
After a long time searching the web i came across Jennifer Dontz site and ordered her DVD`s (hope to get them soon).
Because i also have trouble with my fondant sometimes a specialy now with summer comming up.
Now i was wondering can i freeze this chocolate fondant because sometimes i have frozen a cake covered in fondant and it turned out ok.
Is it possible to do so with this???
Thank you so much.

Best regards,

Astrid (Holland)

Hi!

This is Jennifer Dontz from Sugar Delites. Someone told me about this awesome site and that my DVDs made some conversation If I can help, just let me know. My e-mail is cakebabe1@aol.com We do ship worldwide and offer flat rate envelopes, which usually run 11.00-14.00 to ship depending on location. We only charge the actual amount to get the order to your door, no more. We also offer flat rate boxes as well. I usually can fit 3 or 4 items in an envelope depending on sizes. The chocolate fondant is totally awesome, no cracking EVER. My customers are loving it as well. If I can help, please don’t hesitate to ask. Jennifer

Hi Louise!
I don’t like the taste of fondant, so I made ‘rolled buttercream fondant’ yesterday, but it doesn’t harden enough to make standing decorations. Do you know if there is something I can add to make it stiffer? For example, I wanted to make your cute turtle cake topper, but the fondant is too soft, even after a couple of hours.

Tania: The recipe can be found on the dvd by Jennifer Dontz. Someone in the comments have linked into MS where there also is a recipe for white chocolate fondant.

Ostaras & Xandra: You buy the dvd from Jennifer Dontz site. I have both her dvd and I have no problems on watching them here in Copenhagen. I cant give you the recipe but there are a link in the comments to another recipe for white chocolate fondant. You can try that instead.

Dear dear dear Louise,
I also can’t buy the DVD here in The Netherlands. Mind you, your blog is very populair!! I love to read and chill on your site from time to time. So much fun!!
I would really wanna try this white choco recipe, cause I tried others before, but they were a disaster on the cake. I had to resque my cakes every time. Can you share this recipe on mail? I hope so! I would be so much more loved if I could present a white chocolate cake!! hahahaha WOW!! Getting goose bumps all over!!
Hope to hear from you.
Tot ziens (See you soon)
Liefs (hugs and kisses)
Xandra

Thank you for the white chocolate fondant recipe from MS.

Margaret Ban: Its not a dvd that you can see online.

Maggie: I was thinking of using glucose but then I decided to use the “real” thing.

Camilla: You can get the corn syrup in some “Super Best” but I have only seen it here in CPH.

Ladies, If you click on the pink colored word “Jennifer Dontz” in Louise’s original discription it will take you to the web page in which you can buy the DVD for yourself and the recipe is on the DVD. Jennifer does not give out her recipe free. You have to buy the video. She, like many of us, have to make a living making cakes and you have to pay for the DVD to get the recipe. Check out her other DVD’s as they are awesome as well! I have the fondant fancies and frills DVD (it has the white chocolate fondant recipe on it as well) and it has a lot of great techniques and ideas. Happy Caking!
