Mix together all fondant ingredients in a large bowl until blended well. In a small dish, mix 1/2 cup DRY fondant with 2 tablespoons cherry juice. Carefully spoon fondant-cherry juice mixture around each cherry. (It may be necessary to mold with hands). Using a toothpick, pick up each covered cherry and dip in melted chocolate coating. Place on wax paper or in candy molds. Refrigerate until firm. Let set 24 hours before serving; the acid in the cherry causes the dry fondant mixture to liquify.
