Help me make "Juicy Fruit"

Post by Flying Laughter on Fri Jan 20, 2012 7:32 pm

I want to make a "Juicy Fruit" rainbow cake (silly farm makes it) out of TAG paints.

What colors would you recommend to make it?

I have that cake and love it! Let me pull it out and compare it to Tag. They are basically neon colors but in a girly pallette.

Neon Purple, Neon Orange, Neon Magenta, Neon Yellow and white.
My recommendation...instead of the stark white at the end....I would use a pearl gold or pearl white. It makes the inner corners softer and not so stark.
I am making a "Juicy Fruit" myself soon and prefer the softer edges when plain white.
Just my opinion.

but... the order is purple, magenta, orange, yellow white. Wink You just had the orange and magenta swapped. I actually really like the white in mine cause it sets off the bright colors but I bet pearl white would be really pretty. Looking at the tag neon purple it isn't very dark. I would go with regular purple if you do tag. It's darker and much closer to the purple in the juicy fruit cake. I think the dark purple against the neons is what makes it so pretty. On a side note.. (my unsolicited advice here)...I have about 12 ROUND rainbow cakes from silly farm, and as much as I like them, they are a pain in the butt to load. If you are going tag, I would take advantage of the 2 color splits and make one that is square. (easier to cut up too). They are more expensive but you are getting 2 of your colors in each one. Get a neon orange/neon magenta split. neon pink/neon yellow. Then maybe the pink and purple split. I bet you have white you could use from elsewhere or pearl white. Wish I could turn ALL of my round cakes into square!!

the purple and the yellow are not neon. I tested it with a black light. they are more opaque then neon.

Neons aren't always black light reactive... They're simply very bright colours.

Does anyone have a swatch of the juicy fruit cake?

This is one that has been requested for the shop. While I want to be accomodating, I hate copying another's colors.

But, if we can come up with something close, but not exact, using TAG, I am happy to add it to the next order in two weeks.

good idea metina. and I like glitterfly's idea of pearl white, and maybe instead of yellow pearl gold.

NOW I'm excited!

I like Juicy Fruit, but I prefer the square container and all the same brand paint so it wears more evenly.

I have a juicy fruit ABC but the white strip in it has pretty much leeched a lot of the yellow into it, and it's muddled, even with a few swipes of a baby wipe it's still yellowed. I'd buy a full sized split cake one from you no matter how you configured it Metina.

I have changed my original comment and deleted a few posts since that seemed have caused a misunderstanding. I not have included my comments. No hard feelings I hope.

So what would be a close version using TAG colors that isn't a direct copy?

I love the stark difference of the white and I think it makes the other colors Pop.

I might cut out the yellow, or put a color in there that would help eliminate the "muddying" of the two colors (white and yellow)

or add two different purples (the darker on the outside)

I can't wait to see what you come up with.

Instead of calling it juicy fruit you can call it tooty fruity Very Happy. I know everyone said they wanted all Tag but doesn't DFX make a neon white?

I can only make the custom splits with TAG colors. I like Tooty Fruit, but still a little too close to for comfort.
