Chicken pot pie? Not really but an edible show piece made from fondant clay except for the "chef pastry brush tool" in the middle which I had in my kit for years and I said whynot include this in my fondant genre for my come back post? Hmmm, here it is guys. My last post was last December of 2008, that was way too long . Really missed it .
One afternoon, while in my kitchen, really had done all my work for day. Rememberd having piles of fondant clay in my storage box. I got 2 pounds of them and rolled it to make cute three layer fondant dummy cake, and I ended up making this free-style genre. I put it on an apple-green and white cake pedestal however the photo was cropped for better veiw of the show piece. There are so many things you can do with fondant like wedding cakes, petit four sec or little cakes and best also for show pieces like this. Here is a simple recipe of fondant clay, try making your own and create your own show piece.

3 Tablespoons Warm Water
5 teaspoon unflavored Gelatin
1/2 cup liquid Glucose (you can get this from baking or some craft stores) or Corn Syrup in a pinch (but reduce the water if substituting corn syrup)
1 Tablespoon Glycerine (optional: improves softness)
6 cups Confectioners' Sugar, sifted


Add warm water to small bowl.
Add gelatin and stir until dissolved.
Add the glucose and glycerine and stir until dissolved.
Cool for several minutes.
In a separate, large bowl, sift confectioners' sugar.
Make an indention in the center of the sifted sugar and pour in the gelatin mixture.
Stir until combined (ideally with a wooden spoon.)
Dust your work surface with confectioners' sugar.
Turn your fondant mixture out onto the work surface and work the powdered sugar in with your hands.

Happy Kneading!
