Hi spottydog,
I usually add the coloring after I melt the marshmallows and water and THEN add the powdered sugar...this will save u tons of time, kneading the color in afterword takes FOREVER! Hope this helps!

Ditto on that. I stir the coloring into the liquid before mixing in the powdered sugar and it gives such a nice and even color every time!

I can see how that would be easier. My MMF is always so hard to knead. I need to cut back on powdered sugar.

Food coloring? Or icing tint?

I use icing colors by Wilton and Americolors.
