If rolled fondant is too soft or sticky to roll, knead in a little additional powdered sugar.
Make sure your hands are clean when handling rolled fondant, and avoid wearing clothing with fibers that might shed.

Place 4 cups confectioners' sugar in a large bowl. Make a well in the center and using a wooden spoon, stir in the lukewarm gelatin mixture. Mix in sugar and add more a little at a time, until stickiness disappears. Knead in remaining sugar. Knead until the fondant is smooth, pliable and does not stick to your hands. If fondant is too soft, add more sugar; if too stiff, add water.
