Puff Paint used as Icing Tutorial
In this tutorial I will show you how to use puff paint in different styles to make super delicious icing, frosting and whipped creams. *If you want to see the larger version of the pictures just click on them.
STEP 1 is you need to buy some puff paint. There are a ton of different brands , one of the most popular brands of puff paint is Tulip but I always buy the cheapest one available. As you can see in the picture below I bought some puff paint on sale for 4 cents. lol yes that was a super deal oh and puff paint is also called dimensional paint, 3D Paint, Raised paint so just look for any of those names on the bottle.
STEP 2 Just squeeze in the shape of the design that you like and you’re done just let it dry between 24 to 48 hours depending on thick you make it.
Here is an example of puff paint used as icing on my crochet macaron
*TIPS*
- You can also make 3D shapes for jewelry just squeeze out your design on plastic cling film, let dry and peel it off.
- Puff Paint comes in a really large variety of colors that are widely available at most craft stores and even at most walmarts
- You can practice on a piece of paper if you want to make intricate designs like real icing, such as dollops or lines. Puff Paint will stick to the paper though, but its a cheap way to practice, or use on cling film and whatever turns out bad just cut them up and use as sprinkles.
- Also sometimes when you first squeeze the bottle the paint tends to curl a bit, so I usually never just apply it straight to my crafts. I squeeze it unto a toothpick and then pull away and then take the straight edge left on the tip unto my creations .
Here is an example of puff paint used as frosting on a clay candy I made.
Here is an example of Puff Paint used on a pom pom. Puff paint can be used on just about any material so its really versatile.
I hope you found this tutorial helpful , if you have any questions feel free to ask away.
