Pastes come in a variety of colors and are capable of creating almost any shade including deep, dark colors. Use a toothpick to apply a little bit at a time. Powdered food coloring is perfect for ingredients that need to stay dry like powdered sugar, or you can brush it on frosting for soft shading.
