I was talking to one of the ladies I go to for my cake supplies and was talking about getting the red icing without the bitter taste. She informed me, bless her heart to use red powder and red red gel.
First, make your icing. Then mix in the powder really good. Once that is mixed add the gel. I will warn you that I used a whole container (Wilton size) of powder and gel, but the icing is pure red.
Just thought I would share the new thing I learned since I know this can be a hot topic sometimes.
