The technique for creating feathered or marbled patterns in dessert sauces does not require the pattern sauce to be heavier or thicker than the base sauce, nor does it necessitate the skewer or pick to be hotter than the sauces, or the base sauce to be cold with the pattern sauce hot. The key is in the method of application and manipulation of the sauces, not their temperatures or viscosities relative to each other.
