Trying To Get Black Fondant
Decorating By Leahmaria7981 Updated 23 Jul 2010 , 10:25pm by stlcakelady
I need about 3 pounds of black fondant, but I only have about a third of a bottle of black left and Wal mart is out of black...as usual...and there is no one else here who sells the food colorings. Would it work for me to color it like as dark a blue as I can get then put the rest of the black in? Do you think that wuuld work?
No time to just buy it?
No one in my town sells it except Wal mart, who is out, and the closest place for me to buy some more is an hour away...
if you have time to buy some buy it from globalsugarart.com they have any color you need and for coloring buy the ameri color from them. the black and red it just takes a little bit to actually get black. and they ship it in like 3 days. they are awsome..
I needed it for today and forgot I was almost out of black... But I got it worked out. I colored it a deep purple then added what black I had and it's now black. Saved myself a 2 hour trip (round trip) just to buy some black food coloring. Next time I'm going to buy a ton of it...lol.
I made chocolate fondant with Dutch processed cocoa which makes it very dark already, then you don't have to use as much of the food coloring to get it black. Have you thought about investing in an airbrush? That way you don't have to use so much black and have a yucky taste.
