can you achieve a true red, or does the red color only result in a pink frosting?

In a small batch of frosting, for instance, you could get red. But normally I would say it's probably closer to what most consider pink.

I never attempted a true red. I was only looking to make pink so this dye worked well for that.

I only really use the soft pink as a blush and I have tried to mix the peach with the pink on a brush and onto my cheeks. I find the colours quite strong so I dust a bit on my hand first. I hope this helps.

Hard to say - depending on what you call "true red". It's definitely red (not orangy red or burgundy red). With all the other colors, the red blends nicely - does not jump out at you. The colors are well balanced!

They have a website and it gives you directions on how to mix the colours. I found after looking that up it was a bit trial and error. Make sure you buy enough product. I didn't!! Hope that helps.

It won't turn pink. Red turns to something close to Nantucket red if let soak for a short time. It will usually progress to a rusty orange and then a faded yellow if left longer. You want a bright pink then you're going to have to re-dye it after removing all the red. I wouldn't recommend agitating the water unless you're flipping the dress on the opposite side halfway through the soak.

No its not a true red . It's a blend between red Burgundy and deep orange .

Yes! If you want your frosting to taste just as good as professional, this is what you use. Myself, I use half shortening and half butter. It's still turns out white.

I'm no professional but have used it to color my buttercream frosting and fondant. You will have to be careful of how much you use since it is liquid and WILL make the frosting loose and same with the fondant/gumpaste. If you find the frosting to loose just add more powdered sugar and cornstarch for fondant and gumpaste. Keep in mind its only colored water. Hope this helps. Pam

Yes, your current antifreeze should be red to pink Hoat. Make sure you mix 50% distilled water only with this antifreeze unless it says 50% premixed, never use pure antifreeze as it is a poor coolant. Also never use tap water as the calcium in tap water will ruin your cooling system

I think the only difference is the red one is concentrated. You'll have to dilute it with distilled water, whereas the pink one is premixed already. The price is almost the same.

We have red. Not sure if it was "pink" that was ordered, but it is red. I cannot comment if there is a specific pink color.

You can mix it into the frosting for a sparkly look or for more detailed look you can use a small pInt brush and dust it on.

I go through it very fast because I bake a lot. I use it in frostings, icings and for my Red Velvet cake. I have some other colors that I didn't use very often over the past 7 years and they are fine to use, they are just liquefied instead of a gel.

I don't think that there is a "pink" color in the mix. Magenta is shown twice (I believe) because it's one of the colors that I use a lot and perhaps the manufacturer figured that others do as well and so include 2 of that color. I have been able to get "pink" by combining Berry Red and White in a section and "swirling" it with a toothpick. Actually, I've gotten a lot of unique colors by using this method.

I would recommend white. Chocolate will make many of the colors unable to be seen properly. IF you really want that chocolate taste I would recommend looking for a Chocolate flavoring that can be added to food. I found one it is Torani Sugar Free Chocolate Flavoring Syrup. Amazon may sell it. If not Walmart does just mix it right in with the frosting before frosting the cake. -Source- I have went to school for cooking and baking

It is definitely not a pink shade, nor is it resembling orange. It looks like a true red, like a bright maroon with no major undertone of those other colors.
