Can you use paint instead of food colouring? Yes, just be careful to wash your hands straight after use.


How do you make it smooth? Take water and rub it on the sides


What do I do if it breaks or crack a few days later?


Put a little more water on it so you can reshape it, then redo in the microwave.
