whats going on? & how can i fix this? thanks..

First issue is that pinks fade quickly, unless you use ChefMaster No-Fade Pink or powdered food coloring. If you use another brand, you need to dust the petals right away so the dust protects the color a bit.

You can make the roses with the "discolored" petals and then dust them or airbrush them to the color you prefer.
