None of my family realised it wasn't ordinary food colouring from a bottle - they were really suprised when I told them it was vegetable color! If you don't have a juicer you could just finely chop the vegetable and liquidise it with a little water, then strain it through muslin or even kitchen paper. It should work just fine. I have attached a picture of my son's Birthday cake that I made using the spinach green icing on the top and beetroot pink icing inside, so you can see how the green icing looks!

(11) | (04/25/2005) Contact I think this is a great idea - but wouldn't there be a taste involved with using these, spinach for example? Or is the amount used to color minimal and no extra flavoring is detected?! Report Spam or Abuse
