I tried this recipe, fondant ws very soft and after covering my cake wit it,it was sweating anyhow,I had to take it off and use another fondant recipe.

Hi Deba Are you for real that the fondant was sweaty?

[@debaodia9757]

@@bobbyuchenna2077 yes it was sweating and sort of melting off d next day and it ws fr a trad wedding. Thank God i had enuf time to pull or scrap it off cuz it ws like meltin be4 usin my regular fondant recipe.

[@bobbyuchenna2077]

Wow! OK now. I guess you're in a hot/humid place plus the glucose was too much. Try reducing the quantity of the glucose

[@GraceJohn1617]

Your location is another factor in fondant making. This is a very good recipe but in a very humid environment without AC it might melt.

[@akintolaoyinlola3701]

I noticed you only added 3/4 of the liquid, did you later add the remaining liquid or just the 3/4

[@cakesbyl.a]

You can add the rest gradually as need calls for it

[@brendamartinsorjiugo3140]

Thanks for this. Please I observed you didn't pour all the liquid mixture. Why? Please I noticed that sometime when the 1kg icing sugar is finished when kneading it requires more icing sugar to solidify. Is it proper to add extra?

[@cakesbyl.a]

Exactly the reason I didn't pour the entire liquid at once, after you add 3/4 you add remaining liquid gradually if need be
