Ice blue colour for fondant/gumpaste

If I ever need to make an icy blue, I put the tiniest amount of blue gel colour into white fondant.

Hope this helps xx

Hi Laura….thanks for your response……I did start by using sky blue gel colour…..maybe I used a little too much..will try again with using just a smidge…thanks again, much appreciated. Jen

Hi Jennifer! I use Wilton teal but just a smidge. It’s what I used on the snowflake cookies I posted. Hope it works!

I use Candy-n-Cake Powdered food coloring to color my fondant. I use the Blue powder to get that “icy blue.” They make a Royal Blue, but it is more Gray when using just a hint. You also do not have as much a problem with fading when you use the powders.

Hi Theresa, thanks for your reply. I;m sorry I did not see it earlier. Will remember that for another time, don’t really use many powdered colours but will give that a go next
time. Thank you.

I just made some icy blue fondant, and used Wilton cornflower blue. It turned out the perfect shade!

Thanks whitecrafty…..yes cornflower blue would be absolutely perfect!! (has that silvery icey look to it). I wasn;t aware there was a cornflower blue available…will definitely remember that for next time!
