My son wants a black OP cake. I found the molds for the guns and want to make
them out of choc. but I want to make them real like.
What can I paint on the choc. that is edible and does not change the taste and would I use white or brown choc.
Please help if you can, any advice will be very helpful.

P.S. I retyped your post using both upper and lower case. (Using all caps is considered "shouting".)
Thank you so much for the info. Plus not sure why it was in all caps first time my computer goes crazy at times
