Hi, yes in the U.K. we refer to ‘fondant icing’ as a very sweet, stiff paste used for decorating cakes. ‘Chocolate Fondant’ is a small cake that’s quite soft and liquefies in your mouth with no need to chew – hence the name ‘fondant’, which means ‘melting’ in French.
Fondant icing is quite tricky as it’s made with sugar, water, gelatin, vegetable fat and glycerol. I wouldn’t know if there is a ‘keto’ version somewhere but, if there is, it won’t be anything remotely close to the real thing, and it would use a lot of sweetener, probably a sugar alcohol, which can cause gut issues if consumed in excess.

The reason I ask is that over here “fondant”, aka “rolled icing fondant”, is a sweet, dough-like, edible sugar mixture used for covering cakes (instead of spreadable frosting or icing, the fondant is rolled out thin like a pasta sheet and draped over the cake).

While I’m here, you wouldn’t happen to know of any recipes for keto/sugar-free, rolled icing fondant would you?

Not sure what you mean by that. Can you clarify?

No, I’m afraid not, Bri, you have to spread it with a spatula. P.S. Sorry about taking so long to reply..your comment went in my spam for some strange reason.

If only I had a kitchen….been without for 7 weeks whilst my house undergoes a total refurbishment plus extension. Living in a building site is horrendous enough, never mind trying to keep posting recipes!!! All my ‘baking’ is being achieved with a table-top halogen oven, believe it or not. Anyway, fudge will be on its way as soon as I make a fresh batch (probably tomorrow). x

Hi Marion! Loving your witty feedback!!! I have decided to make you my OIT (Official Independent Taster). If you fancy trying my new chocolate fudge, email me at antya(at)queenketo(dot)com, stating your home address and full postcode so I can post it to you.

Well, Antya,I enjoyed my trip to Glasgow, ( 67 miles away from my cottage.. I REALLY did ” Step away from the fondant ” but I just kept thinking of the treat in store when I got back home.
As a chef, I knew it would improve after a few hours..& boy improve it did ! It was FABULOUS, awesome, gorgeous, & SO moreish, & yummy, I shall be making it again for the weekend ( Which might have to begin on a Tuesday in my home ! ) I had just ordered all the different Sukrin products,
as I’m type 2 diabetic, & they don’t raise my B.S at all.
They also taste lovely ( I bought mine from a company called Dolphin Fitness, on the web, as they were cheapest )
So I’m now off, to take a trip through your other recipes, to discover what else I can make. I’ve no doubt my lovely Husband, will be confused & wondering just why a full roast dinner, followed by the ” fondant ” is on the table, on a weekday…but needs must. Keep em’ coming, I’m happy to be an official taster xx
Your friend in food
Marion
