Can you over knead fondant?
Too Soft: Fondant can become too soft due to over–kneading, hot hands and humidity. When fondant is too soft, it will be too sticky and will not hold its shape well. To fix, first try letting the fondant rest; cover it loosely with plastic wrap and let sit in a cool, dry area for 30 minutes to an hour.
