i'd like to make a hot pink gumpaste bow. how do i make the color look "real"? do you color the gumpaste pink before making the bow and then paint it with some kind of dust or do you leave it white and then paint it with what? i'm confused by the options--thanks for any help

I color my gumpaste before I roll it out to make the bow.

The only thing I might add later is luster dust if I want a shine to it.
