Renshaw Jet Black Ready to Roll Fondant Icing, 1 kg (Pack of 1) | Vibrant Icing for Cakes, Vegetarian & Vegan Friendly, Versatile for Cakes, Available in 20+ Colours, Improved Vanilla Flavour

I was really pleased with this Renshaw fondant icing. It was incredibly easy to work with straight out of the pack—soft, smooth, and truly “just roll with it” as the name suggests. I didn’t need to knead it much, and it rolled out evenly without cracking or sticking. The texture is perfect for covering cakes and creating simple decorations. It gives a clean, professional-looking finish, which is great for both beginners and more experienced bakers. The white colour is bright and neutral, making it ideal for colouring if needed. Taste-wise, it’s pleasantly sweet without being overpowering, and it complements cakes well rather than dominating the flavour. Overall, this is a reliable, high-quality fondant that saves time and effort. I would definitely repurchase it and recommend it for birthday cakes, cupcakes, and special occasions.

Just perfect for what I wanted on my Christmas cake. Nice and pliable. Easy to use.

Quality and taste was good, giving 4 stars because it was hard to roll out and pick up, whenever you roll it out and pick it up to put on the cake it just falls apart and crumbles making it hard to get a smooth finish on the sides . Difficult in terms of functionality

So easy to use, smooth, soft, easy to roll and the colour is stable and throughout the whole block not patchy at all. I was making my sons wedding cake and he only eats devil food cake with chocolate fudge icing so I needed a chocolate coloured fondant to cover the cake, this was perfect, I used a small amount of the filling on the outside of the cake so the fondant was able to stick to the cake and it worked really well. If you want to use this fondant to model flowers or figures it is a little soft when worked so keeping it cool once formed is helpful until it naturally dries and can hold the shape you want. I used 2 250g packets to cover an 8inch round cake, this amount gave a good coverage with barely any waste, what is left has been saved to make a couple of small figures or a couple flowers. Although the fondant is quite soft it is not sticky making it wonderful to work with, I have used a lot of fondant icing over the years and this is by far the smoothest I have ever used. As for the value it isn't overpriced but also not the cheapest but the quality makes it fantastic value for the money. I could only find the 250g packs but larger packs would be better for larger cakes but the packs do combine really nicely. I can recommend this fondant icing for your needs

Good item

“I tried Just Roll it fondant from Renshaw for the first time when I was decorating my daughter’s 1st birthday cake at home. The package comes as a smooth, pliable block wrapped in a thin plastic sheet, nothing artificial. I kneaded it for a few minutes to soften it up and it became very easy to roll out to an even thickness without cracking or tearing. It drapes over a buttercream‑crusted cake smoothly and holds fine convenient for beginners, consistent texture, good flavor, comes in a variety of colors. I’d definitely reach for it again for a straightforward, “clean” cake project.

Always use Renshaws it is an excellent product and good value only reason for not giving 5* is it was not 'handed to resident' as said in delivery message but left on the doorstep they didn't even ring the bell

Easy to use .

Muy buena calidad. Fácil de moldear. Para cubrir una tarta grande harían falta dos paquetes. Que yo mo supe calcularlo y por si alguien tiene dudas. Pero la pasta es perfecta

I received my order and as you can see in the photo, I received an expired product. I tried to do returns but item is not eligible for return. Not happy.

Cool

Excellent

Das Fondant ist etwas weicher als normales Fondant. Wir haben eine 28cm Torte damit überzogen. Problemlos und sogar besser zu verarbeiten, man braucht nicht soviel Kraft. Der Reißpunkt ist minimal geringer. Im Gegensatz zu vielen Fondantmarken schmeckt dieser auch noch gut. Also wir backen fast nur mit Renshaw und dieser extra weiche Fondant funktioniert gut.
