    My cousin finds that sometimes it's the food coloring that will mess up the texture of the fondant he uses when catering. I eat it regardless 🤣, but there are some colors that make it feel a bit differently than normal.

    • @BakeMyDayMimo
      @BakeMyDayMimo  ปีที่แล้ว +395

      Definitely food coloring does play a role in it, especially if you add too much. But this one I really didn’t add much to it

    • @amyrivers4093

      I was given the advice once when you need black fondant use cocoa powder and then paint the cake black which also helps to prevent your customers and guests from the dreadful black mouth after eating it. I've done this a few times and it took a bit of practice but it does work, I would say it's worth a try.

    But why is this so relatable for making pasta though, too? Got a sibling that has a really restrictive diet due to allergies, and eggs and wheat are two of many that they have. But they love pasta and I'm always trying new alternative flours and binding agents out to make it for them, and it gets to a point where you can kind of just tell if it will cooperate or not. Looks exactly how your fondant wad behaving, lmao. Especially when doing different little shapes and such to jazz it up even if it doesn’t change their diet much. The similarity is interesting, especially when I cook more savory than sweet.

    @Bake my day Mimo, could you please do a video next time you airbrush?? I have a brand new airbrush set that I haven't used yet, its been in the box for over a year, and I got the edible paints. Where do you do your airbrushing? I'm so afraid it will go everywhere its not supposed to. Please consider doing an airbrush video? I need that extra encouragement to try it and I'm not sure how to do it. If you can't show us, can you talk about how you do it? Like, where you airbrush, how do you get it from going all over, some easy tips, amounts you need, and just a basic airbrush video. You've been so helpful and I appreciate your videos. Thank you for all you do. Have a beautiful day! 😊

      Hi love, I would love to do one. Next time my airbrush I will definitely record it. In the summertime I airbrush outside of my patio door because it will definitely get inside all over the entire house. You won’t even recognize it or realize it until one day or just wiping dust and you see an array of colors all over the place. I learned that the hard way so I never airbrush inside the house. In the winter time I airbrush in my garage
