I have seen people use the bright, lime green coloring for their icing and fondant. How do you achieve this color?

Thanks!

I find it best to start with yellow icing and add a small amt. of green until you get the shade you want.

There are so many different shades - so it really depends on the exact color you want. The suggestions above are great. I have used americolor either lime or electric green? (don't have it in front of me - it's the one that is pretty yellowish) and added avacado green when I wanted a deeper shade. Sometimes I add a little leaf green if I don't want it as yellow.
