candy for queen cages
« on: May 08, 2014, 11:40:55 pm »
So I understand that most of the time the candy in the shipping cage is some type of fondant.  What about using marshmallows?  I have purchased the transport cages but they did not have candy with them.  Can I use a small marshmallow in a pinch?

Yep!! they dont last as long but will work.  I have used powdered sugar and Karo, kneading it into a dough and it worked very well too.
