Notes
- Consistency is everything: Thick ribbons splatter beautifully; watery frosting just runs.
- Add water ¼ teaspoon at a time — a tiny bit goes a long way.
- Too thin? Add powdered sugar a tablespoon at a time to bring it back to a ribbon.
- Gel food coloring gives the boldest color without thinning your paint.
- Let each color set a moment before layering the next so they stay crisp.
