Directions:
Put cold water and both envelopes gelatin in pan over very low heat and swirl to mix. (you just want to warm this, not cook it)

Add melted shortening, flavoring, and glucose. Warm to a baby bottle temperature.

Put powdered sugar in large mixing bowl and make a well in center. Pour mixture into well and begin to stir to incorporate sugar and liquid together. After mixture is somewhat combined. Dump bowl onto counter greased with Crisco. Grease your hands and begin to knead sugar into mixture. Keep kneeding until you have a nice large ball of fondant. You may not need all of the sugar that is on the counter. You don't want your ball to look dry and cracked.

Double wrap fondant in plastic and put in zip lock bag. Let sit overnight on counter before using. Can store in fridge for several months. Remove and bring to room temperature before rolling out. Always grease the counter and sprinkle with powdered sugar while rolling out fondant.
