I decided to do a blog post on fondant because I can not count the number of times I have said the word “fondant” to someone and gotten a response of “UGH! I do not like fondant!” followed by a grimace, head shake, and sometimes an additional “UGH!”

Most of the fondant people have had is the kind that is bought from a restaurant supply store, baking supply store, or online. It comes in all kinds of colors and flavors but typically doesn’t taste very good. The way I see it, that fondant is not made to eat necessarily..unless you really, really, REALLY need a sugar fix. That fondant is usually used to achieve a specific look – a smooth, clean look to the outside of a cake. And it isn’t just used on wedding cakes! Regular birthday cakes can be covered in it and intricate 3D sculpted cake use fondant regularly. It is just unfortunate that it does such a great job for decorating but doesn’t taste that good.

That is where Bozilla Cakes differs from the rest! We make our fondant at the bakery for each order. It works just as well as the fondant from the store, but it is so good to eat. I heard that people sometimes prefer it over icing (my fiance being one of those). It compliments all of our cakes and doesn’t require you to peel it off before you eat the cake. We make three different flavors of fondant – vanilla, almond, and chocolate an can be colored any shade of the rainbow!

So, before you discount fondant because you don’t like the taste, give ours a try and you may be pleasantly surprised!
