I do know that to get the "Tiffany" type of blue, you use wilton "teal" colour.
I have used it and it is turquoise.
If you don't have it, I have heard that sky blue with a little yellow makes it too.
Hope this helps

I would think to start with a base of blue and add small amounts of green in......

thanks everybody for your advice and thanks arwa for the article, it was very helpful. but no one said if the cake would look nicer with two toned turqoise flowers rather than purple flowers on the cake?
