This
week I thought it would be fun to make some cinnamon rolls for the
dolls to enjoy. These are really easy but a bit on the messy side
because of the liquid polymer clay.
For
the bread part we are just using an off white color clay. Mix any
white polymer clay with a little bit of beige polymer clay, just
enough to “warm up” the color. The idea is you don't want a
bright white color, slightly off-white looks more realistic.
For
the “cinnamon” mixture I just mixed some Transparent Liquid
Sculpy with some of the two darker colors of chalk we always use for
our baked goods. (the brown and the reddish brown) You will have to
play around to get the right color.
Then
assemble the cinnamon roll like I did on the video. These are super
easy to make.
I
used a bit of the liquid clay to adhere the roll to the craft stick
to make it easier to handle. That way my fingers stay a lot cleaner
and the roll doesn't get smashed by my holding it.
Since
the rolls are rather thick you do want bake them long enough to get
all that liquid clay baked. I recommend 275 degrees for about 15
minutes.
For
the frosting use a 3-D type fabric paint in a white. This stuff takes
while to dry so be prepared and don't touch it for several hours.
Yum!
