Instructions
1
Preparation
Remove all starch traces from the fondant shapes. Place them on a drying rack set over a shallow tray.
2
Pour sugar syrup
Gently pour the crystallized sugar syrup over the fondant until it is completely covered.
3
Crystallization
Let rest for at least 6 hours; an even crystal layer will form around each fondant piece during this time.

Draining
Once the fondant surface is coated with sufficient crystals, remove from the drying rack and let drain for at least 4 hours.

Drying
Transfer to a dry area and let rest for 12 to 16 hours to dry completely.
