Question on Paste Food Coloring
I had never worked with liquid paste food coloring until last night and wondered if anyone had some pointers. I was trying to tint some canned frosting to look red. It seemed like if I added more paste, the frosting took on a metallic taste from the red tint. Adding too little left me with pink frosting. What is the best way to make frosting really red?
The project I was working on was making a giant cookie look like a pizza. I tinted the frosting red for the "sauce" and tinted shredded coconut with yellow food coloring for "cheese." I made my "toppings" from smashed gumdrops. I love the result, except that my "sauce" looks a little pink!
