This is an updated version of my old blueberry cheesecake tutorial. There's a couple of things I've done differently in this one, which I think leads to better results. Most importantly, I changed the method of tinting the liquid clay, in the old tutorial I used the old Citadel inks. Unfortunately these were discontinued nearly two years ago, and when I tried using the new ones the results weren't as good.
After a bit of Googling, I found out that waterbased inks aren't a good choice for tinting liquid clay anyway, as they can make it bubble while it's baking and come out cloudy and opaque, which is the problem I'd had with the new inks. So in this version of the tutorial, I've used powdered pastel instead, which works great. I also like using the matt and gloss lacquer for these instead of just gloss, it makes the sauce look wet and sticky. Mmmmmm.
Feel free to use this tutorial and post your results, I'd love to see them, but please don't post this tutorial anywhere else without my permission.
