Next question, then...what do you use to make beautifully red, realistic roses? Color-wise, I mean. I'm past the point of doing red buttercream roses because I couldn't get the right color and consistency, so now I'm on to the more realistic look of gumpaste. But what about achieving that nice, deep red color? Thanks!

BTW, Edna, your videos are wonderful! I've been watching several of them and my 3-year-old daughter even turned off her Einstein's movie to watch you! I asked her what she was doing and she said she wanted to watch the pretty lady making the cake.
