I'm an amateur cake decorator and baker who works on projects out of my home! I'm experimenting with new ideas and looking for inspiration from fellow cakedreamers! Any ideas are welcome! Thanks for visiting!
Theresa...I use icing colors. Sometimes I thin it in bit of CLEAR vanilla (you can also use vodka but I never have any) and use a food safe paintbrush. OR I use a toothpick dipped directly into it. If you do the unthinned icing color it will smear very easily and remain sticky. Just have to handle it with care! I will take a pic of the tool and technique for the eyes, perhaps this one will be a triple post! :) Foodwriters are great too, but i really don't care for the ones Wilton makes...and I'm too lazy/cheap to order the really nice ones, but for something simple they could work too.
AWESOME!! I might have to try!
ReplyDeleteCould you show how you paint the faces? I still haven't figured out how/what to use.
