Looks like it could be americolor avocado green and the pink might be from there electric or neon color family.
HTH
Americolor Electric purple?
Yes, that's it
Looks like the green could be Americolor's electric green too. I used electric green on the lighter leaves on these: http://cakecentral.com/modules.php?name=gallery&file=displayimage&pid=1475494 (only a couple in the picture, have to look closely for them)
thanks everyone! and yes, now that i look at the picture again, i guess it is more of a purple than pink, lol!
Americolor Electric purple?
I would agree that it is Electric Purple... I have some in my box and just used it last week and derived the same results.
I have Americolor Fuschia and this color is very similar to that, but I've only used it once, so can't say exactly. I LOVE the electric purple fwiw! For the green I mix Americolor Avocado with Electric Green and get exactly that color; it's my favoritist green ever!!

Callyssa, based on your super-enthusiastic endorsement, I bought Americolor Avocado today. Can't wait to try it (the combo of the two)

Ahhh! I hope you like it as well as I do! I just adjust the amount of avacado vs. electric green to get a more toned down, or brighter green, depending on what I'm looking for. I'm not one to EVER use a single color! Sometimes I also add in a touch of Wilton Juniper Green if I want it darker. I hope I didn't steer you wrong!

I'm the color mixing Queen! --Can't help it, spent too many years painting and mixing colors that way as well.
Me too!! I always add 2-3 colors of bc in the decorating bag too; I think it gives a more realistic look!
They look like the green is electric green from Americolor. The pink one looks like
The electric pink but seems shaded with purple.
