Glass Chocolats
I am looking for the perfect brown to make some glass chocolats.
Special brown from effetre has a red undertone. Vetro is a bit better but still not really a choco brown.
I work in all coe's so all suggestions would be great.
I would love a Pure chocolate color ( milk chocolate would be good too )
Thanks

This is Lauscha cocoa, not sure it's the right "chocolate" color (even though I named the bead chocolate, lol).
It's more of a gray-brown to me honestly...
Maybe try to mix some colors together? I know Cynthia made some gorgeous glass chocolates, not sure which color she used though .

You could try using dark brown enamels and completely coating the bead.

I used Effetre dark brown for the semi-sweet, and the lithg brown for the milk.
Vetro pastel ivory makes a good white chocolate but good luck finding that color these days.

Thank you all for your replies.
I will just have to order a new bath of special dark brown and hope this time it is more of a brown than it is of a red-brown
Will be continued
