I'll add a pic in a sec.

Thanks all you guys for the happy birthdays :')

Your color is food gel, right? little bottles, with white lids and sort of thick color past? Use the tip of a knife or a toothpick. Color gel is very concentraited, so your frosting won't get thin. Just put in a little dab (serious, end of a toothpick with a wad 1/2 the size of a pea.) into your frosting. If you want black, put chocolate into your frosting first, then add the brown or black food coloring. Remember, the color gets even darker after you frost and decorate. That medium blue gets darker as it sits, just fyi. So, put the dab in with a cup of frosting, and mix with a knife, scraping edges, until blended. This stuff will stain your skin and clothes, but mostly it washes out.

when its time to decorate using your tips/bags/etc remember than consistancy of frosting is important. If your making shells or borders or stuff, when you pull the knife out of the frosting, it should stick up (the frosting) without falling over much, or it won't be stiff enough to hold decorator shaps.

Why don't sheep shrink in the rain?

Why is there brail at drive up ATMs??

Why are their floatation devices instead of parachutes in my airplain seat???

If a tree falls in the woods and my husband doesn't hear it, am I still wrong????

Remember to let it cool ALL THE WAY for 3 hours before you frost. After frosting, into the fridge for an hour while you color your frosting and get your stuff togather, then the cold cake will help frosting stay in place and look better.

Some of them are called mad and are shut up in rooms where they stare at the walls all day. Others are called writers and they do pretty much the same thing.”
