Hello I want to make a vegan version of a creme egg, does anyone know how to make a fondant filling?

All tyhe recipes online seem to need corn syrup or inverted sugar. I not sure where to get either of these.

You could try:

Glucose is in supermarkets (though mostly around christmas) and generally in cookery shops the rest of the year.

I'm looking forward to making those again. I still haven't perfected chocolate tempering though, but that could be because I only have a rather rubbish jam thermometer :D As Mr F says, glucose syrup can be found in supermarkets, in the baking section.

Apparently, you can make fondant filling using cream of tartar... there are a few recipes on the internet though I haven't tried them. fondant recipe (http://www.homemade-dessert-recipes.com/fondant-recipes.html)
