Let's say I spend some time drawing this picture:

enter image description here

And after a few paragraphs I want to draw the same picture plus some "spices".

Of course I could just copy-and-paste the code, then edit the few things I want to change. But this turn the LaTeX code messy, as my figure repeats over and over!

Question

How could I use the previous code of a tikzpicture without copying it over and over?

NOTE: There is no caption!

This question is very similar to Using the same picture over and over? The idea is to use a macro-form of the image, so you can re-use it with some "spices" at a later stage. Does it answer your question? If so, we can close this as a duplicate. If not, give some feedback. – Werner Jul 12 '13 at 19:33
