essential split cake colors?

I want to make some split cakes but am agonizing over possibilities! What would you suggest I start out with and will be most versatile? (using Snaz) I already have a couple of rainbow cakes..

I am also about to make some little cakes for one stroke. I found it helpful to look up Arty Brush cakes since they show a brush stroke demo. Much rather make my own though!

okay... My must haves are as follows(these are the ones in my kit at all times)


light green/dark green*
light blue/dark blue*
hot pink/light blue
lavender/purple*
bright orange/yellow*
purple/teal/light green*
plum/red/pink/white
metallic green/light green/white
rainbow*
neon rainbow
yellow/red
yellow/lime green*


Those are my favs... the ones with stars next to them are ones that I can't live without(well I could.. but I don't wanna!)

Check on Silly Farm as they have the paint colors and the samples all done for you. Be careful about mixing brands only cause they each seem to react to heat differently.

thanks SO much. this at least gives me something to start with! I was going nuts trying to pick what I thought would be most versatile.

Amen to Metina. I love Snaz for it's Safety but here in Florida - ICK! It all MELTS. Wolfe seems to stay put and dry better!

I'm sure Snaz is easier to split so, I've VOWED to keep my palettes on Ice! LOL

For the Super hot months, I'll only be using Wolfe...it's the only thing I found that will stay relatively well.

Michelle:

I use that one for all sorts of things... Flowers, butterflies, princesses, mardi gras masks.. it's one of my fav combos!

Cool to know. I just wish she'd put all of her rainbow cakes in rainbow order, kwim?
I really want that sparkle rainbow one, but it's off...

just pretend it's tie dyed!

I did order some. As well as some to make my own!

Geesh I have a new addiction buying paints. and split cakes are SOOOO fun!

I'm an order and discipline person... Tie die drives me up the wall...no rhyme or reason...
