And voila, I'm finally back with the cake that I made for my little princess.
At the end of this school year, the class of my princess had a graduation ceremony because she's going to first grade.
I was asked to make the cake for this happy event, and of course, I did not refuse.
We all wanted to have a homemade cake, halal, without chemical colors or artificial additives.
I'll start with the pictures and I will insha'Allah post the the recipe.
The cake filling consisted of whipped cream and fresh strawberries, but only half of the cake because some students did not want strawberries. I covered it with homemade cream cheese icing and my homemade halal rolled marshmallow fondant.
I made a star for each student as well as their teacher and her assistants with fondant, I colored them and wrote the name of each one of them with an edible marker.
And another picture.
I used this rolled fondant to decorate some of my cakes that you can find here in my blog.
Cake Flowers, Castle Cake, Avatar Cake, Sponge Bob Cake and insha'Allah more to come.
A lot of people liked the decorations and wanted to have the recipe of the fondant.
Today, I finally found some time to publish it, especially for a person who recognizes herself, right "L-Z-A"?

About 2 pounds marshmallow fondant.
To make marshmallow fondant, place marshmallows and 2 tablespoons of water in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave 30 seconds on high; stir until mixed well. Continue microwaving 30 seconds more; stir again. Continue until melted (about 2 1/2 minutes).
Place 3/4 of the confectioners' sugar on top of the melted marshmallow mixture. Fold sugar into marshmallow mixture. Flavoring can be added at this point if desired. Place solid vegetable shortening in easily accessed bowl so you can reach into it with fingers as you are working. Grease hands and counter GENEROUSLY; turn marshmallow mixture onto counter. Start kneading like you would dough. Continue kneading, adding additional confectioners' sugar and re-greasing hands and counter so the fondant doesn't stick. If the marshmallow fondant is tearing easily, it is too dry; add water (about 1/2 tablespoon at a time) kneading until fondant forms a firm, smooth elastic ball that will stretch without tearing, about 8 minutes.
It's best to allow Marshmallow Fondant to sit, double-wrapped, overnight. Prepare the fondant for storing by coating with a thin layer of solid vegetable shortening, wrap in plastic wrap and then place in resealable bag. Squeeze out as much air as possible. Marshmallow Fondant will keep well in refrigerator for several weeks.
When not working with fondant, make sure to keep it covered with plastic wrap or in a bag to prevent it from drying out. When ready to use, knead fondant until smooth. Roll out fondant 1/8 in. thick.
To color fondant: If you need to tint the entire batch of fondant, add a little icing color to the melted marshmallow mixture before adding confectioners' sugar. For smaller amounts of tinted fondant, add icing color to portions of fondant as needed.
Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatu Allah taala wa barakatuhu,
I would like to share with you today this beautiful nasheed that my dear sister sent me.
I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did.
Here's the castle cake I made for my little princess.
You can't imagine how happy she was when she saw it.
I decorated it my way, I didn't follow all the instructions I found on the website.
They used only butter cream to cover it, I used my homemade halal rolled marshmallow fondant besides butter cream.
I hope you like it.
Today, I just want to share with you this butterfly cake that I made for my little princess.
I will resume insha'Allah in a couple weeks.
Assalamu alaikum wa rahmatu Allah taala wa barakatuhu,
Now that we are in the holy month of Ramadan, I would like to apologize for not posting any recipes.
I would like to take the opportunity of this holy month to do more prayers and more worshipping.
Meet with you later on insha'Allah whenever I have the chance to put more recipes.
