I've been decorating for about a year and a half and i always wanted to paint something on a cake. I tried mixing the jell colors with vodka or vanilla extract but the results always looked watered down. icon_confused.gif
Do i need to put less extract or vodka and more jell colors?
Can i just use my airbrush colors or is there a better way.
I want to get that bright vivid color on the cake. And for it to be less watered down without using so much jell colors.
Anything would help icon_razz.gif

I love using airbrush colors for painting on cakes. icon_smile.gif

I used them for my skateboard cake in my photos.

Same here, I use airbrush colors straight from the bottle - no mixing!
