1. simply take regular granulated sugar & add a few drops of food coloring (about 1/4cup at a time with about 5 drops of liquid food coloring).



Voila, colored sugar. What’s more, you can custom color the sugar as well. Need orange for Halloween? Or a specific shade of red or blue? Or a certain color for a sanding sugar or garnish? Done!



*NOTE: If the sugar gets clumpy from the food coloring, give it a spin in the food processor to break up the lumps.
