Frequently Asked Questions

How do I achieve a true pastel shade in buttercream?

Dip a toothpick into the gel colour and mix into your buttercream gradually. Pastel shades require very small amounts of colour. Start with less than you think you need and build up slowly. American buttercream made with white shortening gives a purer pastel base than butter-based buttercream, which has a naturally yellow tint.

Can I mix Wilton Pastel colours together?

Yes. All Wilton gel colours are compatible for mixing. Blend the pastel shades together to create custom tones, or mix small amounts into white fondant to create a coordinated multi-colour palette for your cake design.
