Have a cake order for Saturday with a request for cheetah prints.I cover my cake with MMF.
How do I keep black color mix FROM turning navy/dark blue once applied to MMF. I am referring to the outline of the cheetah prints. HELP!!!!!!1
I use Americolors too. Maybe I didn't add enough black plus I used lemon extract instead of Vodka.
I did a cheetah print cake this weekend, for the black outline around the spots I used Wilton black gel without any vodka or extract. I even made a jamaican flag cake the weekend prior and found that it was best to just use the black gel color without mixing it with anything.
Yeah, I would suggest just using straight food coloring rather than adding lemon extract. I've never mixed it with anything (except maybe water if I need to water it down) and I've never had a problem :)
Americolor and Duffs make the best black for painting...and I dont use lemon extract...always vodka
AUse a straight ol' brush and americolor :) good luck ..
