Parma violet colour

Hi there, has anyone managed to find a colour or combination that matches parma violet. The colour has got to be the strong colour, not like the sweets we get in the UK.

I have got to make a wedding cake, with the colour getting stronger at the bottom to a really strong parma violet.

You know I had to go Google it… All i know are the sweets, didn’t realise it was a separate thing!

I know but it is really difficult to get as it is a mauvy violet with a hint of fuschia. Guess I’ll have to try out until I am happy.

Have you tried a Violet gel colour? If you get that and a Fushia, you should get the colour you need I would think

Thanks Katy. Will try that.
