That’s interesting......I did not know that some say fondant is not meant to be eaten.
The blog that the rose cake comes from references an alternative way to make fondant - a ‘marshmallow’ kind; but I don’t think I would like that.
I’ve had marzipan candies and liked them a lot; but I imagine that it’s probably more difficult to make/work with than the fondant.

You can eat it but it doesn’t taste very good. To each his own.
