Tamiya Baking Master Decoration Powder

I found an interesting new product!

Tamiya Decoration Series: Baking Master Decoration Powder to give that authentic baked look to your faux cakes and breads.

It's a box of three coloured powders--light brown, brown and dark brown. The powder comes with a two-sided applicator brush.

To demonstrate, I have a cupcake and doughnut made of Mermaid Puffy White Clay.

1) Apply some light brown powder to the mostly dry clay cupcake and doughnut with the brush-end of the applicator.

2) Use brown powder to darken the edges and sides of the baked items.

3) Use the sponge-end of the applicator brush to roughly daub on darker highlights.

4) Finish with more brown and dark brown powder along the raised edges for a "baked" look for the cupcake or a "fried" look for the doughnut.

5) Leave the powdered items alone for a few hours before using them in your deco crafts.
