Arty cake vs Rainbow cake?

Is the only difference that one is round vs rectangular??

=Arty cakes are small and rainbows are big. They all use various brands of paint except for the TAG Rainbows and One Strokes.

What is different about the TAG ones?

TAG is a brand of paint that's similar to DFX and Wolfe. TAG has the most economical one strokes and rainbows. You can buy both of them right here in the Forum Shop.

I think that the tag one stroke cakes may have more in them too, and the Tag rainbow cakes are 50 gram, not sure how bit the round rainbow cakes are from silly farm. The biggest large split cake (by wieght) is the pirsma. If you liike paradise, you cannot beat them because you can use them as one strokes or as rainbows too and they last and last. They are all different, they have different colors and opacities, and combos.

I have one rainbow from Silly Farm. Transferred it to a TAG 32 gm container. Filled the container bottom to the rim. If you are going to start investing you might want to try the TAG. The big rectangle 50 gms are easier to load when using a sponge and the one strokes are a nice size with plenty of paint. I don't have any Arty cakes to compare sizes with TAG but do have a DFX mini one-stroke and it is tiny and difficult to load compared to the TAG. Personally have gotten hooked now on making my own splits...much more economical.

Here you can see the DFX mini (rainbow cake in lower left) compared to the TAG one-strokes.

were the silly farm ones FAB or what?

I had the Arty & DFX tiny cakes both overpriced & arty cakes got used up quick.

I have no patience to load those small or rectangular cakes and found making my own is the way to go for me. I have them in 2 3/4" long wells for a fast load. The smaller wells at the bottom are bigger than the Arty cakes.

When I wanted extra rainbow cakes, I got empty boxes from Metina to make them for a horizontal load. Then I found another container and moved the extra cakes there ; )

how do you make your own?

I do. I've never bought one pre-made. They are much cheaper to make than to buy.

HOW? lol. Buy a few, cut em in half with a knife, then shove em together again?

also, are the one strokes/arty cakes the same general size, so that I could fit them in this:

I can't post a link for some reason but I'm point to a case with round cutouts and rectangular ones.

There are a lot of posts on split cakes and how to make them etc. There is a search bar at the top of the page. Type in "split" and you should have a lot of old threads to read through.

Lots of info here if you take the time to look

Thank you!

What about the size question?

The old arty cakes were tiny, like the dfx one strokes. The new arty cakes are longer like the TAG one strokes but the TAG one strokes have more paint than the newer arty cakes. They look very similar but they are different sizes.
