Recommended uses
- Unicorn or princess birthdays: children's parties in a pink and pastel palette.
- Baby showers: baby celebration cakes in a powder pink shade.
- Romantic wedding cakes: shabby-chic or vintage weddings in a soft palette.
- Event cupcakes: pink floral decorations for brunches and afternoon teas.
- Fondant flowers: peonies, English roses, and hydrangeas for botanical wedding cakes.
Instructions
- Conditioning: remove the fondant from its packaging 15 to 30 minutes before use so it reaches 18 to 22 °C.
- Kneading: knead for 1 to 2 minutes to soften it. If it remains firm, microwave for 5 to 10 seconds.
- Rolling: dust the work surface with confectioners' sugar or cornstarch, never flour. Roll to a thickness of 3 to 4 mm.
- Covering: place the fondant over the cake already covered with ganache or smooth, chilled buttercream, then smooth the top before the sides.
- Finishing: trim the excess with a knife or pastry wheel, then smooth once more with a fondant smoother to remove air bubbles.
Store at room temperature (15 to 22 °C), in its original airtight packaging, away from light and heat. Do not refrigerate: moisture makes the fondant sweat and become sticky on the surface. Once opened, wrap the remainder in plastic wrap, place it in an airtight container, and use within 2 to 3 weeks.

Frequently asked questions
How much pink fondant is needed for a baby celebration cake?
Allow 500 g for an 18-20 cm diameter cake, and 1 kg for a 25-28 cm cake. Allow an additional 20% margin for cakes taller than 10 cm.
Will Renshaw pink darken over time?
E163 (anthocyanin) is a natural colorant that is slightly sensitive to direct light: store the fondant away from light to preserve a stable shade over time.
How can I achieve a stronger, fuchsia-style pink from this shade?
Knead in concentrated fuchsia pink gel color a little at a time: the powder pink base of this product provides the foundation, and the shade gradually intensifies without altering the texture.
