Marble technique for movement effect or natural details

I love this simple technique and I use it very very often. Furthermore it is a good way to use tiny bits or left over of fondant coming from the cake you just finished to cover.

Put all your bits together, knead them slightly until the colours start to fuse.

Use your rolling pin to smooth out the fondant, depending to the direction you are rolling the pin you will obtain different fantastic effects.

In this case I used some geometrical cutters.

Following a couple of examples of cakes and details with this technique. Try it, you will never leave it, it gives a modern twist and very natural effects and movement to your creations. Enjoy it!
