I am making gp daisies for a cake for this weekend, and they are giving me grief. They are supposed to be really bright crazy daisies, but it's not going so well. I'm having a hard time getting the gum paste colored bright enough, and then they lighten A LOT as they dry. I have to make tons of them, in six different colors. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Where are you letting them dry? They really need to stay out of bright light and sunlight. I put mine in a dark closet covered and I don't really have any problems with them getting light as they dry. I still have dark red fondant roses from over a month ago that are as dark as when I originally made them but I keep them out of bright light.
