All 50g Split Cakes

A 50g split cake is the one to reach for when a single design has to survive a whole booking, not just a queue. TAG Body Art's 50g Splitcake range covers everything from a straightforward Regular Rainbow to Sunset, Fairy Floss and Snowflake, while Diamond FX's numbered 50g cakes like #7 Rainbow Neon Nights, #24 Colour Splash and #83 Wild Berry give a working painter a deep block of colour that does not run out mid-face. Fusion's 50g Rainbow Cakes, including Bright Rainbow, Frozen Shimmer and Unicorn Party, round out the size.

Who buys 50g over 30g

• Face painters booked for a full school fete or party circuit
• Anyone painting the same handful of designs over and over in one sitting
• Painters who hate stopping to swap cakes halfway through a queue

If you are painting one or two faces a weekend rather than forty, the smaller 30g split cakes are cheaper to try and easier to carry. Store an open 50g cake properly; the cases and empty tins on this page are sized for it.
