Hi, how do i get my buttercream or fondant to get black black? i mainly achieve the grey look. if anyone can help pls let me know. thanks Ana

It helps if it is chocolate first. Then it will get black

I usually add Hershey's Special Dark cocoa to my buttercream before adding black coloring. Makes it SO much easier.

you can by black fondant. i use cocopowder with bc first than use black

I heard some advice once regarding black and red fondant... I was told it is best to buy those colors already tinted. I have never purchased these items so I don't know how they taste, but they probably taste better than puring a couple ounces of coloring into your own fondant.
