How to Color Fondant

Marshmallow Fondant(c) 2008 Elizabeth LaBau, licensed to About.com, Inc.

1. If you want to add coloring or flavoring to your fondant, flatten it into a round disc. You might want to wear gloves to avoid getting food coloring on your hands during this step. Add your desired amount of coloring or flavoring to the center of the disc, and fold the disc over on itself so that the color or flavor is enclosed in the center of the fondant ball.

2. Begin to knead the ball of fondant just like you did before. As you work it, you will begin to see streaks of color coming through from the center.

3.Continue to knead until the streaks are gone and the fondant is a uniform color. Your fondant is now ready to be used or stored as outlined previously.
