Very helpful video, Edna! Thank you. I want to make rich colored fall flowers for a wedding cake. I also have the powder, color dust to deepen the fall colors for shading. Do you steam your flowers after? Thanks for all your teaching. :)

@stratsgalore yes I do!

i tried coloring my mashmallow fondant red and failed...my fondant was litterally crumbling and falling apart...i dont know why...it was fine till i put alot of red in it...i dont know if it dried out cause i was neading it with corn starch...maybe that what happened...but no matter how much red i put it would not turn red...=( and i have to do my nephews cake next week which is elmo so i HAVE to get this down asap...please help!

@daniela23ish Marshmallow fondant can be more tricky. Specially using wilton colors. Americolor and chefmaster have more pigment and need less color. But MMF can be more temperamental

[daniela23ish]

@tonedna1 wilton colors in the little white tubs...i actually added the color in the melted marshmallows and it came out perfect =) it took almost the whole little container but it worked and i added some fushia pink too i have the video posted on my channel if u want to take a look =)

@daniela23ish MMF can be more difficult. What company color you are using?

Just a Tip: for those who bake from home and have limited supplies, you don't need to go out and buy an airbrush to get the airbrushed look, or to easily get color on just the right amount of fondant. I have these things called colormist food color sprays, and u spray it onto a cake after frosting or on a decoration :) they are very cheap

@p1124usigan No, use fondant
