Yup Anne

Especially since Misti said she saw the technique at her cake club, then went home and just DID IT!!!

I might think I could do that, but .....NOT!!!

I start off a few day before and by making my plaques of fondant or gumpast and them harden. I can also do this method on a freshly covered fondant cake. The picture I found on the internet and printed it out. The skillet on the left in on a very low flames. There is water in the skillet and in the water are those little silver containers I bought from a cake supply. In them I put hardened cocoabutter that melts and assorted cocoa powders and ameri colors. I use very nice paint brushed and also I have a set of dental tools that I use to etch out the "white"  whiskers after the painting is complete.
