Which food coloring is flesh colored?

I need to flavor a white cake that I will be coloring orange with food coloring?

  • My sister's bday is coming up and she wants an orange cake with orange frosting. I am using food coloring to change a white cake/frosting to that color. Will the food coloring cause a change in flavor? If so, what can I use to cover up that taste? Would vanilla work?

  • Answer:

    Get some orange extract. Its with the spices.

Normally if you use only a few drops of food coloring in your icing/frosting it won't make any difference, and won't change the taste at all. But you can taste it for yourself and see. But if you feel it does, then I recommend either and icecream flavor or vanilla flavor to cover up the taste. Normally nothing will change.

You can use vanilla and orange extract together. You can also decorate/garnish the top with scored citrus slices, orange butterflies (shown as lemon/lime) candied citrus peels or sugared fruit/flowers: http://www.fbnr.com/finder/searchlists/130.htm

Ok, use a white cake mix, a little orange food coloring, and instead of water, orange juice.

It won't cove up the flavor. I make colored cupcakes for my little cousin using white cake all of the time. They taste exactly the same. So you have nothing to worry about. Hope this helps

substitute frozen orange juice for the water amount,or an orange liquer, also you could garnish cake with orane zest or candied orange peel. Champagne Cake Recipe courtesy Sandra Lee Cooking spray 1 box (1-pound 2 1/4-ounce) moist white cake mix 1 1/4 cups extra dry Champagne 1/3 cup vegetable oil 3 large egg whites 1 can whipped white frosting 1/4 teaspoon Champagne flavoring Silver mini disco balls, optional Silver Dragees, optional, if available in your area Silver edible glitter, optional Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat the bottom of a 9 by-13-inch cake pan with cooking spray. In a large mixing bowl combine the cake mix, Champagne, vegetable oil, and egg whites. Beat on low speed with an electric mixer until just combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula and continue beating on medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour into the prepared cake pan and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean. Remove it from the oven and cool completely. Empty the frosting into a small bowl and add the Champagne flavoring. Stir to combine and set aside. To make the mini-cakes, with a 3-inch ring mold (or use an 8-ounce pineapple can with top and bottom removed) stamp out 6 cakes. Slice the cakes in half, horizontally, to make layers. Frost the bottom layer, replace the top layer and frost the tops and sides of cake. Decorate with the disco balls, Dragees, and glitter, if using. Cook's notes: Champagne flavoring and edible glitter are available where cake and candy making supplies are sold. Dragees, or silver candy balls, are not available in all states.

food coloring usually has no taste to it.... just make sure u read the directions, or u could do a sample and see what happens. Another suggestion is u could also make it an orange flavored cake. Hope this helps.
