basically how do you get the color hot pink? maybe someone can help?

Americolor makes an Electric Pink and a Fuschia (which is kind of purple). I'm not sure how else to get it.

try bright pink, a little mauve and a drop of blue.

honestly i've always felt like any of the wilton "pink" colors give you hot pink! it's hard to get a soft shade of pink with those, it always seems so bright, even if you just use a little. so if you just use a lot of wilton pink would that give you the color you're after?

I also think that the Americolor is the way to go. I used it for the pink color on blue's clues mailbox if you are familiar with that.

Also, Mccormick has a neon pink, that gives you a real good hot pink color - I thought it was better than americolor. Elaine

Wilton has a few pinks. I think their rose is actually very much a hot pink.

but is'nt there a way where i can just mix colors without buying a new colour paste?i've git wilton pink and purple and red and and yellow, is'nt there a way to mix some colors to get hot pink?

so what colours do i need to mix to get hot pink??i'm sure someone out there knows please!!!!????

Well, I suggested Americolor, b/c I have a feeling hot pink is one of those colors you really can't make by yourself.

Here is a link to a Wilton color chart http://www.wilton.com/cake/icing/colorchart.cfm
