Hi Everyone,
I hope someone can help me. I am trying to mix the wilton red coloring into royal icing and it is just pink 
. I have practically used half of the container. How do I get an apple red from the wilton icing color? Also, is there another company which sells a good red (and black, for that matter) that will actually die the icing the right color?
Thanks for your help,
Elvira
AmeriColor!!!! I had the same problem with wilton. I used americolor and it was so much better. HTH
I've heard that if you let Wilton red and black sit overnight, the color will darken. I use Americolor gels and only have to use a few drops of red and black to get the color I want without having to let it sit out overnight. Also you may want to try only coloring a cup of icing at a time.
Americolor Super Red -- I took white white to Red Red with only a little bit of this coloring to make the Dr. Seuss Cat in the Hat cake in my photos -- I always make my frostings the night before I need them because they do deepen in color overnight---
Good luck!
Try the kool-aid. It does the trick, plus gives it a nice flavor.
