Hi Carly. I re-stir after the microwave to make sure the color is dispersed thoroughly. After the fridge always remix your buttercream to make it nice and fluffy. Otherwise its too firm to pipe. Let me know if that helps you!
After the fridge yes. After the microwave no. After the microwave they should be a soupy mess. You are looking for near liquid consistency. In the fridge the liquid will firm back up. Give a good mix after the fridge to get it back to the piping/ frosting consistency
Doesn't work. It makes it a liquid mess and then in order to be pipable, you have to allow it so solidify again, and the color is back to the original muted color it was at the start. Tried it many times
This is very well done video!!! I need a neon inspired cake, this definitely works!!!
Thanks so much! Neon gel colors will also have this effect. Let me know how your cake comes out!
I love this!
Why am I getting 80s TV commercial vibes?😂 seriously...did you do commercials? Voice gave me flash backs😅 simple helpful video, ty!
Hi, does this work for a vibrant red?
I tried this but my icing separated.
Will this method work with regular food coloring? I don't have gel, that's why I'm asking. Thx
Hi Christina, I've only tried it with gel. But I would definitely try it with the regular stuff. If you do let me know if it works!
so you don't re mix them to fluff them up after the mircrowave/fridge?

@@ThePrincessBaker remix, with a mixer, right? Not just stir.

Thanks Brandi! Its crazy but it really makes the colors pop! Which color do you find most difficult?
