i needed a big batch of brown MMF for figures and didnt have any brown gel coloring..so i thought id use coco powder instead. I was unsure of how much, so i used a whole box...it didnt look that dark. then i realized i needed to add more water after i got a dry crumbly mess. more water and a ton of crisco later, i ended up with what looked like an elefant turd. i tried to use it anyway and made some lovely poo scupltures *sigh*

add chocolate to the recipe. i think someone put it up here somewhere

I am cracking up! Girl, I'm so glad you shared that picture...worth a thousand words!

OH my goodness looks just like ummmmmmm yeah what you made too funny, thanks for the laugh as we have all done something like this.

LOL! Well - if you're ever going to make a "poop" cake or "toilet" cake - you're set!!! Too funny!

aww you poor baby! I wish I had a solution for you and I know this is frustrating for you....

but at the moment I cannot stop laughing at your description ...and the photo is just priceless! poo sculptures!hahahahahaha

I must stop drinking so much diet coke before I read topics like this, or at least invest in some Depends to wear when I am reading on CC

on another note..can someone help me add photos to the gallery? i posted in the tech support but didnt get the right help. they are the right size, but i get a message that "this is not an image or there is an error" they are saved as jjpgs..any ideas?

OMG I'm laughing so hard right now. I tried to make chocolate fondant with just cocoa too and pretty much ended up with dry cracked poo as well. I finally saw a recipe that you add both cocoa and melted chocolate. Was better but still more difficult to work with than regular MMF . Thanks for the good laugh!!

You need to post that at this forum...

Thanks for sharing.

So who ended up eating it?

Elehant POO! I am DYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh my gosh...I frowned when I saw that, then laughed. Man, that looks gross. You could send that to someone as a really sick joke, and they'd be wondering what the heck they did to get such a thing on their porch...haha.

I sorry that it was so groose but i had to say it lol
