how to make holi powder

In our video we are going to be using something that is called Holi Powder, this stuff is used and is most renownley known to be used at a festival know as the 'colourfestival'or the holifestival, it changes location in Europe every year, the last one in 2013 was in London.


We have taken an idea from this. We would like to involve the use of holipowder in our video, do do this we can either buy the powder or actaully make it ourselves. Gus from our group has already done a test run on making the powder which worked very well, the only flaw in it was some of it was still slightley damp therefore, clumped together a bit.
this is a video on how to make holi powder.




 This is icing colour which is used to be put into the cornflower, after 10 minutes it will look like this :-
The doe becomes really hard and rock solid. and becomes very hard to press.



AFter completion we lkeft it to dry for two days until cracks appeared, this is when you can break down the powder into smaller lumps, after this it can be sived, we then heated
the dust in the oven
