How to Make Fake Frosting that is Easy to Work With

 

            Have you ever tried to make fake frosting to go on top of a clay pastry you’ve made, but found it to be too thick or too thin?

            This article will give you easy to follow step-by-step instructions for a perfect fake frosting. The first thing you will need to do is gather your supplies.  I use a clean bottle cap to mix the frosting in, a wooden popsicle stick to mix with, some Translucent Liquid Sculpey (TLS for short), and some polymer clay in the color of your choice.

            Once you have all your supplies, take a one to one ratio of clay to TLS, and put them in your bottle cap and start mixing. It will take a while for the clay and TLS to mix and become smooth, so be patient with it. Depending on how thick you want your frosting, you may want to vary the ratio. If you like thick frosting add more clay, if you like thinner frosting add more TLS.

            When the mixture becomes smooth with no clumps of clay in it, you can use a needle tool or whatever you like to frost your pastry with the frosting you’ve made. You can also scoop the frosting into a plastic Ziploc bag and cut off the corner to pipe out the frosting in different designs.
