  what you'll need 
      for art food

Organic Bright Colored Vegetables,  Organic Bright Colored Fruit, Organic Milk or Milk substitute, Dehydrator with fine mesh screens, cooking pots, blender, coffee grinder, small jelly jars, small glass bottles with corks and skewer sticks.

Organic Pumpkin  organic Beet are a must for soups

Organic blueberries art a must for smoothies

Start by making your soups or smoothies. Don't add salt or sugar! You might have to use some at the end when you are using the coffee grinder.
I make the strong, bright batch 1st. This is organic Kobocha pumpkin we grew here on Akua Lani LLC.  Make a large batch of this soup for your base color, save some to dehydrate.  Then you add some Organic Milk or Organic Milk Substitute. Don't add to much. Save some of this batch for the dehydrator. You'll need to do this at least one more time.

---

After you have your at least 3 different shades of the same color, its time to Dehydrate! 
Make sure your soup and smoothie mix is thick enough to not pour over the sides of your fine mesh dehydration sheets.  Start prepping more color soups and store them in the fridge or freezer. Dehydrating takes a while.  Nice to have the next batch ready, prepping a bunch of soups takes time too.

Getting closer to   goodness  : )

Now You have a nice collection of Dehydrated flavor colors! Next You'll want to get a clean coffee grinder. Make sure your colors are really dry. Grind away! Turn it into power or sand. This is when you can add a little sugar or salt to help with grinding.

---

Get your jelly jars and fill them with the colors. Keep them dry.  Next get your food art bottles and skewer sticks. Same Idea as sand art at the fair. Now Bring the Kids and play with your food!! Cork the bottles, best stored in the fridge.  Take them out and admire your colorful food art! Rehydrate and enjoy your flavor art meal or snack!
