Okay so I bought this product so I could make transparent deco sauce for my decoden and clay miniatures. I was very excited because its air dry , its transparent and it comes in a whole bunch of colors including white which meant that I could create even more colors by just adding in pigment.

So I purchased 2 bottles of this Glass paint in 2 colors: Amber and Rose

Oh and I also bought 1 bottle of Kelly’s Non Toxic Glass Stain just to compare it to the Delta Brand

The delta brand really is transparent and dries within a few hours and sets fully after a few days. The lighter color like the rose can be put on pretty thick and its still transparent. The amber color is more transparent when layered on thinly and it wont look as brown as in the pic below it will be a transparent amber.

When it is fully dry it will shrink some and stay dimensional depending on how thick you layer it. It is rather thick and easy to use.

The kelly brand is a stain, It is very fluid , its slightly thicker than water and it can get messy if you move it around too much. As it dries it forms a nice layer of coating , Its transparent and if you want a thicker coating you’ll have to do the process of applying it and drying it several times.

In the pic below the first row is the delta rose, the second row is the delta amber and the third row is the kelly’s glass stain

overall I was very excited to have found a simple to use product that would let me make deco sauce until ………. I turned the delta bottle over to look at the ingredient and I saw the warning below.

It says: WARNING: This product contains a chemical known to the state of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm.

I do not like using products that have dangerous chemicals especially when making jewelry since children and even adults may put it in their mouths. I like to be able to sleep at night knowing products I make will not cause harm.

Im disappointed that delta glass paint is not non toxic it had all the qualities I wanted in a transparent deco sauce. At least the kelly brand is non toxic.

I’ll have to check out other brands of transparent glass paint and see if I can find a non toxic one to use.

I hope this post was helpful.

This is really like part 2 because I did make a previous tutorial on using puff paint as icing but in that tutorial I realized I used older puff paint so it came out harder and not as fluid. So I wanted to make this tutorial to show you the true texture of puff paint and how it can be used to make delicious deco sauce or melting ice cream and other cool effects.

So lets get started.

Materials Needed

• Puff Paint
• Item to cover in puff paint

Step 1:  Take your puff paint and your item u want to cover. I used Scribbles 3D Paint and the color is called Hot Chocolate so its fitting that I make a melting chocolate effect with it. Yum

Step 2: Think about the pattern you want to create.

*I want to make it look like the chocolate is dripping and melting of the candy bar. I really should have the chocolate look like it had a bite taken out of it and then put the melting chocolate there but oh well lol maybe next time I think you get the point.

Step 3: Since this puff paint has a fine tip like an icing tip as you can see in the picture below its easy to pipe and make a melting dripping effect. Just squeeze the bottle in the shape that you want it to go on. It is pretty thick so you can let it dry vertically and it wont mess up.

You can also make it look like deco sauce

and there you go, a super easy and cheap way to make melting effect on your candy and ice creams. If you have any questions leave me a comment and I hope this tutorial was helpful.

I do have a part 2 of this tutorial that will show you how to make the chocolate with glue. So make sure to check back for that one.

Happy Crafting
