Tips for Best Results with Natural Food Color
- Start Small: Begin with a small amount of powder and gradually add more to achieve the desired color intensity.
- Mix Thoroughly: Ensure that the powder is fully dissolved or mixed to avoid clumps.
- Experiment: Try different techniques and combinations to find what works best for your creations.
- Enhance Colors: For sharper reds, add a few drops of lemon juice. To darken colors, consider using ingredients like cocoa powder for brown tones or activated charcoal for black.
Note, unlike artificial or synthetic colors, natural food colors reflect the colors found in nature and you may need to experiment a little more to get the correct color tones. Ultimate Baker manufactures food color in both a matte and gloss format to help support your baking efforts. Following simple tips like adding lemon, which changes the pH, may also help you get the correct color needed.
