I have been looking for a black food coloring marker that will work on cheese for a long time. Never have I found one. *sigh* But I really wanted to do this bento! And he wouldn't look right as blue or green. So I took a little jar of black food color paste that was basically out of gel, added a bit of water and shook it up. Then I used a paint brush to color him in and it worked!! I am so excited! It's a little more work than using the markers but it has excellent results!
omg!! That looks fantastic! Never heard of food color paste, but you are a good painter. That really looks like a decal or something.
ReplyDeleteYay for penguins too! Love Badtz Maru, the lil' rascal!
Such a great work to put the black color on the Badtz Maru. Who will be the next Sanrio characters in the row?
ReplyDeleteWow, this looks fantastic!! Really great ;)
ReplyDeleteLove this! The black looks great! I jumped on the penguin bandwagon too :P They are just so darn cute.
ReplyDeleteYour penguin turned out so much better than mine- he looked like a penguin on steroids or something! haha!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! That is how I color all my cheese. I can never get my markers to work well on cheese.
