What can I use to paint spaghetti that I want to use instead of wire to stick out of my next cake?

Thanks

one of the old old tricks of the trade: Have a piping bag with a writing tip on the end, large enough for the spaghetti to fit into.

Push the spaghetti up into the bag of icing ... then slowly pull it out. The BC will coat the spaghetti as it is pulled out of hte end of the tip. I'd lay aside and let hte icing crust for easy handling.

That's a great idea never thought of it, I have also used spaghetti for ropes on my wrestling cake (in pics) and colored them with amicolors and a brsuh and let them sit aside to dry worked great too.

I've used food coloring to paint it when I want to use the spaghetti as flower stamens.
