Does anyone know what food coloring gels I need to mix to make lime?

Thank you so much!

I think it is 2:1 ratio of green to yellow.

I've made it before and used leaf green and just added small amounts of yellow until it got to the right brightness i wanted. A little bit of yellow goes a long way.

Also, if you have access to a cake supply store near you, Americolor makes one called "Electric green" that is a very nice bright lime green color!!

I use lemon yellow and slowly add kelly green. It's perfect lime green!

I have an actual lime green gel color. It's made by Cake Craft (http://www.cakecraft.net).
