CREATING A MILK MOUSTACHE FOR PR EVENT

[ainsley mackay]

Would anyone know how to create a convincing milk moustache that lasts and doesn’t crack. The agency for the milk campaign has approached me to find a way to replicate the moustache featured in their posters for live events. They want something edible but everything I try either dissolves on the lip or cracks when I smile. I think condensed milk is a good base product but need help in finding something to mix in that will make it brilliant white but at the same time is edible. All suggestions welcome!

Hi Try children’s play glue/paste. It is non-toxic and white. Not very tasty but it won’t do you any harm either.

ready made white icing?

What about that suncream stuff you see cricketers wearing on their nose. That seems to last a long time – I’m not sure how edible it is, though

Thanks for the suggestions, have tried icing sugar but unfortunately it cracks once dried. Do you know the name of a good brand of kids glue/paste Richard? Will also investigate the sunscreen route..
