Americolor fuschia comes out what I would consider to be raspberry. You may want to add a bit of red to it to get it slightly darker.

Something that will determine the color for raspberry would be the type of coloring you're using. If using Wilton, they say to mix, pink and red-red to get a raspberry color.

Colorboy may be able to help you out with Americolor to tell you how to better achieve the color you're needing icon_smile.gif
