Sometimes one should leave well enough alone.
The marzipan pigs collapsed when I tried to paint them. There's now a weirdly-coloured bundle of marzipan-and-fondant in a spare container that I might donate to a worthy cause.
On the other hand, fondant from scratch is scarily easy. You just take liquid sugar, powdered sugar, sugar alcohol and hydrolysed collagen. You end up with lovely very white smooth icing that's so easy to work with.
And a sugar headache. And sticky everywhere. Excuse me while I go shower.
