Add 1 level teaspoon (3g) per 250g of fondant and knead thoroughly.If you require your fondant to be softer then add less CMC (i.e. add 1/2 teaspoon) to 250g of fondant.

Knead very well, and then allow fondant to rest for a half hour before using. Add more CMC for a faster drying effect.

The quantity you use will depend on the climatic conditions of your region.

Always add the CMC in tiny increments and knead the fondant thoroughly before adding more and until you get the consistency you desire or that feels right.

If the fondant mixture is too hard, do not throw it away! Place the hardened fondant in a microwave safe bowl and heat in the microwave in increments of 5 seconds until it softens to the consistency you want. Remember not to start kneading the fondant immediately it comes out of the microwave or else you’ll burn your hands.
