Color is an important part of any cake design. Whether you are trying to create the perfect shade to deliver a theme or match a specific color for a consumer getting it right is crucial. That s where the art of mixing color comes in. Our cake decorating and color pros are here with tips to ensure you get perfectly colored icing every time. 1 test the color Quickly test how a color will look when diluted. Just place one drop in a cup of water and stir. You ll instantly see the color s hue and get an idea of what it will look like in icing. Buttercream has a tendency to darken while the color is absorbed. Mix it a day ahead of time, and slightly lighter than your desired shade to allow it to deepen to the perfect hue. MIXING [ tips & tricks ] get to know color 2Did you know you can use a sheet cake board like a painter s palette? Mix color in small amounts of icing to see how each color reacts with different types of icing, as well as how much color to use to achieve your desired hues. 4 6 plan and mix early 5paste delivers dark color Too much liquid gel color tastes bitter and makes icing hard to use. Instead use gel paste. You will use less to get your desired color. VARIES BY TOPPING [ performance expectations ] 3play with color Use your cake board palette when mixing two colors. Mix each color with a little icing first, then mix equal parts of those two icings together. Play with color until your desired shade comes through. fold, don t stir Achieve the best results with whipped icing by folding the color into cold right out of the refrigerator batches instead of stirring. non-dairy whipped In non-dairy whipped topping the liquid or gel paste colors both work. All colors have a tendency to bleed in non-dairy whipped toppings because the primary ingredient is water. A little goes a long way. It is best to use lighter colors and avoid any black or red intense colors when making whipped topping decorations. Airbrushing over them will darken them more than trying to color the product all the way through. buttercream Because of the shortening base, buttercream has a tendency to darken over time. If you plan on doing a lot of reds for Christmas or blacks for Halloween, mixing your colors a day ahead of time will intensify your colors, allowing you to use less color. fondant Fondant absorbs color more than buttercream icings and will have slightly different recipes than the spreadable icings. The water test will also help in learning how much you need of each color and what ratios you may need to make your desired color. As with buttercream icing, coloring fondant the day before and wrapping it tightly will help the color to mature and use less color than if you colored it the day before. Either gel or paste colors can be used for fondant. DecoPac.com 3500 Thurston Avenue Anoka, Minnesota 55303 1-800-DECOPAC 1-800-332-6722 Español: 1-800-898-3063 Fax: 763-502-0534 #21777 2017 DecoPac
