Melt the marshmallows and water in the microwave for 1 minute 20 seconds, stir and add flavoring. (if your whole batch will be colored do it now, to save kneading time later!
Pour 1/2 a 2 lb. (that is 1 lb.) bag of confectioner's sugar into a well crisco-ed stand mixing bowl. Make a well and add the marshmallow, water, flavoring mixture. Mix with the dough hook on low until combined adding sugar as needed until the ball pulls away from the sided of the bowl and is no longer sticky or crumbly. (if you made a boo-boo and added too much sugar at once just add teaspoons of water at a time to get the proper consistency)
Take fondant ball from mixing bowl, knead with well crisco-ed hands and counter until the texture is smooth and pliable. This is the time you can separate into sections and knead in coloring.
Wrap generously in plastic wrap and well, do it again, just to make sure. I then seal in a zip lock, just to make sure, AGAIN. This will store at room temperature for 3-6months. Roll out and cut into shapes as needed, or form flowers and other decorations with.
