I'M WORKING ON MY FONDANT TO GET DEEP BURGUNDY. I BOUGHT BURGUNDY FROM AMERICOLOR AND MIX IT WITH CHRIST RED FROM WILTON AND LET IT SIT OVERNIGHT AND STILL IS WINE . USING ONE COLOR ON THE CAKE IS OUT OF THE QUESTION AS U WOULD SEE BELOW. I NEED IT FOR THE PEARLS AND TO PAINT THE REST. NO MATTER WHAT DESING I USE, DON'T KNOW YET(ANY SUSGESTIONS WELCOME) I CAN'T GET THE COLOR 
MY HANDS ARE PINK TRYING TO MIX THE COLORS. CAN I BUY READY-MADE BURGUNDY FONDANT? DO I NEED TO BUY SUPER RED? HEELP.
BY THE WAY THE DOLLAR TREE HAS PLAYDOUGH STUFF,I GOT A THINGY THAT YOU CAN USE TO MAKE ROPES( .99 CENTS) NOT BAD.
I needed a burgundy color royal icing recently. And I found americolor's Maroon to be very helpful. It's less pink than their burgundy. I used burgundy, lots of maroon, a bit of super red, and a bit of brown. Ended up with the perfect color in spite of myself. 
Have you tried adding the smallest little amount of black icing colors to what you've got already? Try a small, small, SMALL amount, then increase it a little at a time as needed. HOpe that helps.
