[Sca-cooks] Sugar Plate help....

[Sue Clemenger]

Hello, everybody! I hope you're having a grand summer! I've been having 
fun going to our local farmers' market, and doing natural dyeing 
projects (hey, sorta OFC, since one of the batches is being done with 
cochineal, and it's food-safe <g>....does anyone know if there's any 
record of it actually being used to color foodstuffs?)
Enough of my rambling, though....I've got a question for a friend, who 
doesn't subscribe to the list.  She's wanting to learn more about 
working with sugar paste, and would like to correspond with folks who've 
"been there and done that," if you know what I mean.  So all of you 
experts out there, if you wouldn't mind corresponding with her, please 
send me a note off-list, and I'll give you her email addy.
Thanks!
