Back to school 2016

Back to school cookies by Tunde Dugantsi

This week my kids started school. I loved spending the summer with them, but now I am celebrating having more time for cookies. Here is my back to school set for this year. There is nothing really new in this set, just my version of the old classics. Have fun with them!

TruColor Color Guide 2 - Airbrush Shine: Metallic Reserve Collection


Yesterday, I started to create my TruColor color guide with the Airbrush Shine: Metallic Paint Collection. Today, I show you the other set, the Metallic Reserve Collection. This set also contains 12 rich, shiny colors, some are my absolute favorites.

I would also like to talk about the silver and gold color. They are a great and safe alternative for gold dusts. Most gold colors we use are not edible, they are non-toxic. So I am thrilled, that TruColor Gold Shine provides comparable results (even better than some other brands) while being safe to consume.

When anyone asks me which one color would I buy to try TruColor I always recommend Gold Shine.

Check out all the wonderful colors of the Metallic Reserve Collection:













And here is the color which is not part of the two collections:


These two posts cover the Airbrush Shine line of Trucolor natural food colors.

TruColor Color Guide 1 - Airbrush Shine: Metallic Paint Collection


You know how much I love TruColor natural food colors. As I use them a lot, many people ask for advice about which colors to get first. And of course, I am not a big help as all the colors are great and everybody will need the colors that match their style. All I could do was to tell which colors were my favorites.

I decided to make this easier and show you how these colors look like when I use them on a cookie. I start with the airbrush shine collection, as these are the colors I use the most.

As all TruColor natural food colors, they come in powder form. You have to mix them with distilled water before use. You can use your airbrush, but I used a paint brush as I was just coloring a single cookie with each color. These shades are really saturated. With airbrush you can achieve a much lighter shade if that's what you need.

Here are the colors included in the Metallic Paint Collection:













And this is not the complete palette of the Airbrush Shine line! There is the Metallic Reserve Collection and one extra color. I will show them next time.
