About Fondant
Fondant is a smooth, versatile sugar paste commonly used in baking and confectionery for decorating cakes, cookies, and pastries. Originating from European pastry traditions, it consists primarily of sugar, water, and gelatin or glycerin, with some recipes including corn syrup or vegetable shortening for pliability. Fondant provides a flawless, polished finish to desserts and is often dyed and shaped for intricate designs. While its delicate texture is admired in gourmet baking, fondant is high in sugars and lacks significant nutritional value, making it a treat best enjoyed in moderation. It contains minimal fat and no cholesterol, but its high-calorie content can contribute to unhealthy diets if overconsumed. Typically used as decoration rather than a main ingredient, fondant suits celebratory desserts where aesthetic appeal is the priority over nutritional benefits.
