Fondant fun!

Today I attempted working with fondant. I have never tried this before, and decided to start off with homemade marshmallow fondant. Here is the blob of fondant before cake decorating:

And here is the finished product. It was a lot of fun, sorta like play-doh for grown ups! I did a very simple design for my first project, so I could get a feel for working with it.
This cake is made for Grandpa's 83rd birthday party. Can't wait to dig in!!!

Oh WOW, I am so very impressed. Did you have to blow dry it to get that smooth look? I just read somewhere that's a trick... or does it just come out like that? I definitely have to look into how to do that!!
