re: Gum paste/ fondant figures

In Singapore, my ranking of available fondant in terms of usability:

1. Felchlin – best white fondant
2. Massa Grischuna – best white fondant but expensive
3. Fondafrost – best colored fondant (halal certified)
4. Redman or Satinice – good white fondant
5. Satinice – good colored fondant
6. Wilton – texture is ok but tastes like plastic. Only when desperate…
7. Silverspoon – not bad tasting white fondant but crap texture… At least slightly better than Pettinice.
8. Pettinice – best tasting fondant but completely crap texture. Avoid like the plague.
