There's sometimes regular blue and red food coloring at the market. But this year since I couldn't find any, I used frosting paste. You should be able to find it at any baking supply store. Just use a touch and you'll have a strong dye.Kithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07510995858725193385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36460660.post-91141651509072458272007-04-08T07:44:00.000-07:002007-04-08T07:44:00.000-07:00luv wat u posted i liv 4 kookin' i bassically forg...luv wat u posted i liv 4 kookin' i bassically forgot how 2 dye eggs,u totally saved my easter!!!thanxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36460660.post-59804180069607304502007-04-08T07:35:00.000-07:002007-04-08T07:35:00.000-07:00i luv wat u posted on da site,i live 4 cookin' i t...i luv wat u posted on da site,i live 4 cookin' i thought i forgot how 2 dye eggs in da past 18 years you totally saved easter 4 me !! thanx.....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36460660.post-44399328125668030812007-04-04T11:48:00.000-07:002007-04-04T11:48:00.000-07:00Glad to hear my family is not the only one addicte...Glad to hear my family is not the only one addicted to Easter eggs, My kids like to experiment with getting gradations of color by double-dipping.

We usually paint them using cotton buds. Cottonwool is also great to paint with to get patterns by gently touching the egg with a piece that's been tipped into food dye. Egg dye is always sold here in Estonia before Easter so that's never a problem.<BR/>Traditionally we also colour the eggs by boiling them wrapped into onion peels and colourful yarn.Evelinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09990740844357610959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36460660.post-33285607540272425702007-04-01T19:35:00.000-07:002007-04-01T19:35:00.000-07:00lis, go for it! surprises can be fun.lis, go for it! surprises can be fun.Ellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733838869805925920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36460660.post-68619764550497465832007-04-01T05:55:00.000-07:002007-04-01T05:55:00.000-07:00I love the eggs.. and how vibrant they are!
