Special remark on food colouring:
In order to carry out a cake design like the deep blue sea, or elmo, there is a need to tint the icing with a great amount of food colouring. Red colour especially, is known to taste bitter when the colour is tinted densely. Our customers ever feedback that black and navy blue colours do taste bitter too.

Food colouring may stain hands or tongue when comes to direct contact. The food colourings that we currently use are US brands and water soluble. Therefore, the colour stains will fade off after few wash with water.

We normally recommend customers to scrape off the icing on the cake if colouring applied is dense. Otherwise, please consider to do pastel theme colours instead of bold colour themes.
