Hello, all I want to first say that the cakes here are amazing! I recently started doing cakes for fun! Well I had some left over cake batter that I put in a pyrex bowl and baked it up! You can see the cake I am talking about in my photos bc I haven't figured out how to put a pic in! Than I frosted it with some left over red and green frosting. I make my own BC icing but I use Wiltons color paste. My husband keeps telling me that the red taste very bitter. I have not tasted this. I know I have seen the "no taste red" does that really make a difference? any suggestions please?
Yes, the Wilton no-taste red is awesome. It does take a LOT to get a deep red color (example, last year I used two bottles of the stuff for one batch of royal icing for deep red poinsettas.) My neighbor didn't know of the no-taste red and used a large amount of another red color and ultimately ruined her cookie dough (trying to make candy cane cookies.) Hope that helps some!! Good luck! ![]()
It definitely made a difference to me before I started using the no taste red....but I guess it's different for everyone - You can also use cherry kool-aid or similar drink mix so you don't have to use quite as much red paste. I've also been told the red powder eliminates the bitterness b/c you only use a little bit.
good luck!
