Wilton Icing Color 1 oz.

I have used this coloring several times and always end up with a weird purple fondant instead. I even have a hard time making gray. You could use the method of mixing the dye to the melted marshmellows or using dark modeling chocolate with it to give it a base (Google: How to make Black Fondant) but from what I've read Americolor has a better black dye. I use Wilton products all the time but this one is a dud.

I just finished making a huge batch of buttercream frosting using my typical recipe, I tasted the untinted version and was satisfied. Unfortunately for me I did not do a small test amount before applying this Christmas Red to the entire batch it has completely spoilt the frosting, leaving it with a harsh, very unpleasant after taste. I have purchased cakes from Costco in the past and have learned to avoid anything that has red frosting as I get the exact same taste. I also did not find this to be anywhere close to a Christmas red, perhaps I did not use enough, but given the resulting taste having only achieved a pinkish red, I can only imagine what a horrible tasting mess you would be left with if you tried to achieve a real red my frosting ended up being inedible!

I had to use a lot of food coloring to get the black color I really wanted. I finally achieved a pretty good color.

Some colors are good some or not. It's so unpredictable. Tried burgandy and it became magenta kind of color. Not so happy with this.

Ok, I haven't used this for icing, I don't bake a lot, don't really have the time, but with the experiences I've had, I'd use it in a heartbeat for icing. I have been highlighting my hair to get some blonde in it, my hair is naturally medium brown. I have a lot of brassiness and was using purple toning shampoo, but it got to be too expensive for me and was not moisturizing enough. I read online that I could make my own using food coloring and a good shampoo, so I bought the cheapie 4 pack of liquid from a local grocery store, and it was a pain in the butt to create the purple I needed, and my shampoo was then greatly diluted. I ended up finding some of this at a local store (it was less expensive at the store, but didn't have as many colors as Amazon), and such a small amount mixed with my shampoo and conditioner produced the color I was looking for and my shampoo still had a creamy consistency. This has been working great for me in my shampoo. I love that I can get a deep, rich color with just a little bit of this.

I gave it a 4, since I've never used it yet for its intended purpose, and I can't say how well it performs in food items. But now, when I do bake, I don't think I'll ever use the liquid stuff again, this stuff is so concentrated and really doesn't water down anything.
