I use the Wilton recipe for all shortening buttercream and need to tint it country blue. Any ideas on what shades of Wilton gel icing colors I need to use. Thanks

Cornflower blue is a good one...you could add a TINY touch of brown if you want it a little "dustier" - HTH!

Try Delfinium blue...it is a nice kinda antique looking blue.

Thanks. All I have tonight is royal blue. I'll see what I can come up with.
