Neutrals:
From Left to Right
1. #126 Bright White
2. #101 Super Black
3. #108 Ivory
4. #131 Warm Brown
5. #104 Chocolate Brown
My Thoughts & How I Use Them:
Who knew White would be such an important color especially if your royal icing is already white. The next time you whip up a batch add a squeeze of Bright White and you will be amazed at how you can make white "whiter". Warm brown is "warm" and Chocolate Brown is a "cool' brown. Ivory looks very golden when it comes out of the bottle but is does make your icing a lacey ivory shade. In my previous post, the Cowboy Cookies used a lot of Super Black to make them REALLY black. It turns your teeth and tongue black. That's great when you are five, but not 35. Next time I would make tan riding boots or even pink cowgirl boots.

5. #164 Electric Pink
6. #114 Deep Pink
7. #132 Soft Pink
My Thoughts & How I Use Them:
I have all of these "pink" colors and I really have only used Soft Pink and Red Red. I wish my local Hobby Lobby had Tulip Red as I would like to try it.
Oranges & Yellows:

2. #125 Terracotta
3. #117 Peach
4. #105 Copper (Flesh tone)
5. #106 Egg Yellow
6. #107 Lemon
7. #135 Gold
Thoughts on These & How I Use Them:
Egg Yellow is my "go to" yellow. Some how I bought two Lemons. Don't know if I will ever open the second one!
From Left to Right
1. #109 Forest Green
2. #111 Leaf Green
3. #110 Teal
4. #112 Mint Green
5. #129 Avocado
Thoughts on These & How I Use Them:
I LOVE Avocado! The fruit and the color. It makes a wonderful soft green that is not too intense. Another tip is to use Teal with Sky Blue to make a beautiful Tiffany Blue.
Blues & Purples:
From Left to Right
1. #128 Turquoise
2. #103 Sky Blue
3. #134 Navy Blue
4. #122 Violet
5. #130 Regal Purple
Sky Blue is beautiful and Violet live up to its name. Not much to say about these other than they are great vibrant colors.
