I am trying to achieve this color. The color on the flower says fuchsia, but none of the colors I have tried comes remotely close. I have tried Ateco Fuschia, Americolor Fuschia, Chefmaster Fuschia, Wilton Rose, Wilton Deep Pink, adding purple. I am using SI white fondant.
I would love to know how to get this color. Maybe I should be starting with pre colored pink fondant?
The RI in the bowl you see is Americolor Fuchsia. It looks like the flower color in the picture, but it's much lighter in person.
Thank you all so much. My pink palms also thank you.

I would avoid adding purple to it. If you stick with your deep pink gels with a touch of red, I think you'll achieve the color you're wanting. Purple can muddy up pink pretty quick I've found. I've used a very small touch of blue before to pinks and that seems to work better than the purple if you're wanting to tone it down. SMALL amounts! Like the end of a toothpick size.
Using the pink fondant, I mixed in red, and blue etc. At this point I can't remember what other colors went in. The color is not perfect, but it is close. I will let it set before I use it.
Thank you everyone so much. Who knew that pink(s) is such a hard color?
