Simple Fake Blood

Clear Corn Syrup

Red Food Coloring

Milk - Optional

However much fake blood is how much corn syrup you'll need. Pour it into a bowl and mix in some red food coloring. Add some blue if you like. Adding a small amount of milk will make the blood appear darker and thicker.

Realistic Recipe

2/3 c. Corn Syrup

1/3 c. Warm Water

5 Tbsp Corn Starch

4 tsp red food coloring

1 Tbsp Powdered Cocoa

2 drops of green or yellow food coloring

Mix the corn starch with the water in a large mixing bowl. Stir in the corn syrup. Add the food coloring slowly, checking for color.

Thanks to Andy for the following recipes:

Gravy Blood

This is fairly new and I haven't had chance to test it properly but its looks GREAT!

Gravy Granules

Red Food Coloring

HOT Water

The directions are EASY, all you do is make the gravy up as you would normally but if you feel like it, you can make it a bit thicker, then add the red food coloring. It's up to you how much you add but too much will stain as it will not have been diluted enough.

Cheap 'N' Easy Blood

This is good for spidering:

Plain Flour

Water

Red Food Coloring

1 tsp. of Coffee

Boil the water on the stove, then sieve in the flour, making sure you get ALL of the lumps out. The quantity of ingredients aren't important, it just depends on how much you want. Once you have the flour mixed nicely into the water it should look nice and thick. Next, add the red food coloring.

You will notice that it's a ghastly, bright red colour but don't worry this is why we add the coffee. It is important that when you add the coffee to make sure the mixture is hot, otherwise it wont dissolve, but up until adding the coffee can be done in a ordinary mixing jug or pan.

Palmolive Imitation Blood

You can also make fake blood with Palmolive dish soap, (it doesn't matter how much you put in) it depends on how much blood you want! Add red berry powdered Kool-Aid!

I know another way to make fake blood!

Get some writing icing. Put it on your hand. Put some water on it! Then spread it all over your hand and there ya' go!

The red food coloring is going to stain your skin, and it will be hard to remove the color. Toss the homemade stuff and buy a bottle of fake blood instead, and let it dry thoroughly once you put it on.. It doesn't cost much, it's non-toxic, and won't run when it's dry. Afterwards, Use cold cream, tissue it off, then wash with soap and warm water to completely remove the rest of the color.

oh thats an easy one add about 6tbsp of cornstarch to a bit of the syrup and mix out the clumps than add the rest as well as food coloring and 1 cup of cold water than boil in microwave ( barely boil not too much) cool and you have perfect blood

Cornstarch tends to thicken things
