Decorating By Aliwis000 Updated 16 Mar 2007 , 11:12pm by playingwithsugar
Okay so this week was my Spring Break, my parents own their own business so I spent it working. (yes I know, welcome to the real world and being a grown up kinda sucks) anyway, I need help. I want to make something this weekend but have no idea what. I kinda have been wanting to try color flow on cookies and what not but havent yet. I am willing to do cupcakes a cake cookies etc. Just need a good idea to run with. Any suggestions would be helpful as I am terrible at coming up with ideas.
PS To any and all of you who helped come up with the ideas for my last cake wiht my best friend (the girl power one) thanks so much!
Hi!
Are you a newbie to CC, or to decorating also?
Did you look in the articles section of the homepage for ideas?
I do not know what supplies you have on hand, but here are a couple I can think of -
chocolate transfers - they're done the same as color flow - outline, then fill in. You could make little stand-up characters for some cupcakes.
cake painting - even if you do not have a cake to do this on, you can get a soft paintbrush and some food color, water it down with distilled water, and practice cake painting. Just put some icing on the back of a cake pan and let it crust, then use your watered down colors to paint designs on your cake form.
cocoa painting - another easy project you can teach yourself. You might not have cocoa butter handy, so you can use cocoa powder and cooking oil, but not on a real cake - it would taste nasty.
Here is a brief tutorial from my friend's website -

Hope it helps.
