Liquid food paints
Edible paints to apply with a brush, for detailing, adding a patina, or enhancing a fondant or chocolate decoration.
Painting with a brush
Ready to use or to dilute, these paints are applied in thin layers to give texture to a relief, highlight a sculpted detail, or cover an entire surface. They complement gel or powder colorings, which are mixed into the dough itself.
Drying and layering
Let each coat dry before applying the next. Layering shades creates depth or a metallic patina effect, without waiting more than a few minutes between applications on a dry surface.
