Looking for a sentimental gift to give that special someone for Valentine's Day? What's more sentimental than creating a cake with love! Our friends over at Satin Ice have the perfect, simple recipe for a heart shaped cake to make the best gift anyone could ask for from their significant other.  

Fondant is typically made with sugar, water, and corn syrup. For sculpting and shaping, gelatin is usually added to form a thicker and more malleable consistency. This ingredient is now more popularly used to sculpt, decorate, and cover bigger, professionally made cakes. You will typically find fondant on a cake meant for special occasions or more commonly on wedding cakes. Fondant is the preferred baking product for decorations and sculpting because it is easy to work with, easy to find, and mostly allergen-free.

Professional chefs, bakers, and confectioners are always looking for the finest ingredients they can get their hands on. This is no surprise to you since you are already here at Stover & Company looking, but sometimes the question is a matter of price, sometimes a matter of quality, sometimes a matter of brand; and sometimes, a mix.

Beloved for its workability, consistency, and taste, Satin Ice Fondant is revered by bakers and confectioners for giving that beautifully finished sheen to their cakes - but that’s not the only way it can be used. Fondant actually has a number of uses and can be used in just as many ways, as you are about to find out.
