Sourcing a bright, royal blue
I have been asked to make a wedding cake in royal blue. I am trying to source pre coloured sugar paste, but find many seem to be a fairly dull, almost navy blue. I am looking for a bright, rich blue as per the photo. (I am not doing this design, just referencing the colour).
I know I can trust your wisdom to come up with some advice, so thank you in anticipation 😁.

How about the Massa Ticino sailing blue?

Massa Ticino or Saracino… you can always use a blue closest to the one you want and finish it with airbrush…

Your welcome Linda. And a tip for you. Knead in about 15/30 ml of baking soda. Won’t change the taste, or make your fondant gritty. But sets the colour so the blue won’t fade.
