Homemade Sugar Fondant Paste

Directions

1. 1

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the sifted powdered sugar and powdered milk. Stir the dry ingredients together until fully blended with no lumps.

2. 2

   Pierce a wide hole in the top of the condensed milk can. Gradually pour it into the dry mixture in a steady stream, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon.

3. 3

   Once the dough becomes too stiff to stir, knead it with your hands for 2–3 minutes until smooth, pliable, and non-sticky — it should feel like modeling clay.

4. 4

   To color the paste, divide it into portions and knead in powder food coloring until the shade is even throughout.

5. 5

   Use immediately or wrap tightly in plastic wrap and store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months.
