Best Black Food Coloring
This is the only black food coloring I buy, it's the best! Perfect black every time and doesn't make the frosting taste weird. A little goes a long way, very high quality

Super black!!
LOVE this AmeriColor black gel food coloring. I used it to make a SpiderMan/Venom themed cake for my son’s birthday, and it turned out great! Not grey like many other black food dyes.

Beautiful
Worked beautifully to get a jet black color without a word taste. Just a warning, make sure you take a break from mixing when you add it in. It was look like a dark charcoal grey color but if you let frosting set for a minute then it darkens to black.

It works!
This is really good for those crazy Halloween recipes, like Bat Wings... A little goes a long way!

Lots of drops necessary...
I found I was endlessly adding lots of drops to make my royal icing 'super black' as what this black is named. I used at least half of my small .75 bottle of super black coloring which seemed like a bit much. Even then it was not a true black (more like a lite charcoal black). I added Wilton brand black gel coloring which reached my very small amount of icing in a small bowl to a true black color of icing.

AmeriColor Black Gel Paste: The Good, the Bad & the Ugly
This is a great product! I used it to make Black Velvet Cupcakes with Black Velvet Frosting for my husband's 50th birthday. It was beautifully black! So many kinds of food coloring just turn things grey. But this one? True black!! I bought it because I was told it doesn't turn your teeth black when you eat something colored with it (as long as you are coloring chocolate frosting). This IS true if you eat one black cupcake with black frosting. Your teeth remain white. However, our guests who ate two cupcakes? Yeah.... They had some issues. The dye stuck in the corners of their teeth making them look a little 1960s British. (Oops.) We sent leftover cupcakes home with family and friends. No one felt ill or anything after eating them but.... You know how if you eat beets, your 💩 turns red? Yeah.... If you eat a LOT of this? Apparently, your 💩 turns purple. This would be laughable but... I heard it stained some toilet bowls. 😬 (Yes. I got phone calls. 🤭) All that aside, I absolutely would use it again. I just wouldn't offer anyone seconds or thirds. (Or I'd use different cupcake / frosting recipes and not use the whole bottle making 24. 🤷)

Love this line of food coloring
Took three quarters of the bottle with cocoa powder to get the right deep black needed. But it worked!
