I used a sugar craft gun, alternative you could use a garlic presser?

Thats why you use clear “tasteles” alcohol to paint with. Many in the cake decorating world use it. I mostly use regular vodka when I need to paint on my cakes.

Remember that we are talking about only a few drops of vodka when mixing together colors and dusts 😉

For the rock I covered the “stone = cake” with light brown fondant and then I mixed some soft gel colours on a plate with drops of clear alcohol. I then used a sponge to apply the colours with.
