Decorating Tips

To truly capture the Red era aesthetic, use these color combinations:

Deep red royal icing for the RED letters
Burgundy for the iconic scarf
Black and gold accents for added drama
White details for highlights

Pro Tip:

Let your base layer of icing dry before adding details. This will prevent colors from bleeding and give you crisp, clean lines.
