I was going to use golden yellow.
But someone told me to use egg yellow for the gold.
Any suggestions?

I recently used 4 drops of lemon yellow and about 1/2 - 1 drop of chocolate to get gold. On the color chart listed in the articles section they suggest a different combo of colors, but when I did the recipe it was an orange gold as opposed to a yellow gold which is what I needed. I used Americolors. Hope that helps!

Golden yellow and Egg Yellow are the same color. DIfferent brands call it different names.

Hah, I did not know it was the same color.
I would like to try the americolor too but I think it's too late for me to order!
