At the moment im falling a bit behind with the accessories for my Guro Lolita co-ord for the expo on saturday!
But ive got a pink Bodyline dress (dont wanna get any blood on the rest!)
Im making an eyepatch, and an apron (which I shall splatter the blood on)
and putting on plasters!
Yep, this year ive run out of money :(
but hopefully by next year i'll have a bit more to go all out!!!
but it's all a working progress and I think it'll look okay on the day!
LOOK WHAT I FOUND!!
Chocolate blood (edible)
This mixture looks great, smells great, and tastes like chocolate!
- 1Combine light corn syrup with red food dye until you get a shade that closely resembles real blood. You can also use a red drink mix (like cherry Kool Aid® powder) instead of red food dye, although be warned that this changes the flavor.
- 2Carefully add a small amount of cocoa powder to the syrup mixture to darken the shade and cause the fake blood to turn opaque like real blood.
- 3Perfect the consistency. Either:
- Thin the blood by slowly adding water; or
- Thicken it with a couple pinches of flour or cornstarch mixed in carefully and slowly.

Sadly this is a tiny post today, but more following Saturday after expo, and pictures too!!!
