Fake Blood and Flesh Recipies

22 Dec 2008 / 1 Comment / in Chemistry/by Carl

This stuff is great fun around Halloween, but who says you have to wait till October for some fun with fake wounds and fake blood? Mix up a batch and see how gross you can make it look!

Fake Blood
You will need:

  • 16 oz. White Corn Syrup
  • 1 oz. Red Food Coloring
  • 1 oz. Warm Water
  • 1 or 2 drops Blue Food Coloring
  • Corn Starch (optional)

Procedure:
Combine corn syrup, food coloring and water to create an edible blood.  A few tablespoons of corn starch can be added to make the blood more opaque.

*Note: Red food coloring may temporarily discolor skin and possibly stain clothing.

Fake Flesh
You will need:

  • flour
  • corn starch
  • white glue

Procedure:
Combine equal parts of flour and corn starch.  Add white glue (i.e. Elmer’s) and mix to create a doughy paste.  Apply to skin and allow to dry.  It can then be covered with makeup to blend into the skin.

    To get the flesh more to the proper color, i suggest mixing in a little tiny bit of cacoa powder… It adds to the experience.
