Each time that I have made Black Frosting I did it freehand, so to speak. I never had a recipe to follow. Now days bạn can buy black thực phẩm coloring, but I find it thêm fun to mix the color myself. I start with a container of white frosting in either vanilla hoặc cream cheese flavor. If bạn have a box of primary colors(red, blue, green, yellow) thực phẩm coloring it will tell bạn how to mix purple. This is a good starting point. Once bạn have the basic purple bạn can add small amounts of green. Always check the flavor of the frosting while mixing because sometimes too much thực phẩm coloring can make it taste like dye. Personal preference comes into play now. bạn can make it a grayish black hoặc a charcoal black. If bạn don't care about the flavor bạn can keep adding thực phẩm color until bạn get a darker black.

The first time I ever made black frosting I used red and green. I used mostly green to get it dark and then added red, which turns it a sort of brown shade. From there I added thêm green and red drops in small amounts until it was a dark color that resembled black. In the end it all depends on how you want it to look.

I have never tried to make black frosting using the already green frosting but I suppose it could work because I have used trái cam, màu da cam Halloween frosting to make a salmon-red color.

If anybody does try to make black frosting please send me a picture so i can see what it looks like. I haven't ever tried to tell someone how to do it before. I hope it works. Happy Coloring!
