ABSTRACT
Preparing to make fake food is a little like baking or cooking: you need to gather the necessary tools and ingredients. Most items fall within three categories: basic, intermediate, and advanced. Many recipes for projects in this book can be accomplished by using objects found in the basic tool and product section. They can be found at the grocery store or the local craft store such as Michael’s®, Hobby Lobby®, Walmart®, Jo-Ann Fabrics & Craft Stores®,or A.C. Moore Arts & Crafts
®. The intermediate section includes tools and products found at hardware stores or craft stores and a few specialty items found online. The advanced section has items available at theatrical supply vendors, specialty hardware, or woodworking stores. Specific trademarked products are cited because they are the products used in the recipes. There are many similar products by different manufacturers that may be cheaper or more expensive and perform just as well as the products listed in this chapter and in the recipes. Not all products used in all the recipes are included in this list.
