okay today what we're gonna make is colored sugar it's real simple recipe
all we do is take your food coloring whichever color you want some sugar
Ziploc baggie I'm going to measure out one fourth of a cup of sugar per bag and
use one flavor one color per bag and I'm going to use a toothpick just to pull
the color out you don't need much color and we'll work it in and we're going to
change the color of the sugar from white to whatever color i choose and this is
really good for sugar cookies really cheap alternative to buying store-bought
brands like this which cost I think about five dollars and you know you can
do this for maybe ten twenty cents so big difference so here we go okay first
what I'm going to do is take my ziploc bag and I'm going to take about a fourth
of a cup you don't have to measure if you don't want to i just want to do it
just make sure all of them are equal have it your ziplock baggie then I'm
going to take color blue and make sure using gel food coloring not the liquid
kind it's very important for this I'm going to take some out and you don't
need a whole lot but just a glob on the end of a toothpick is pretty much all
you need about that much and just put it in your baggy
wipe it off on sugar and it won't look like you have much in there but then
take your bag and try to let the air out of it as much as you can will be easier
to work in zip it up and just start working it in it's gonna take a while
it's not going to be done right away and just work it in really good anywhere you
see little spots work it into the sugar and you'll do this for a good five
minutes work it in any spot where you see a lot of food coloring spot here
so I'm gonna move more sugar down towards that
there you go blue sugar similar to this only the store-bought kind the granules
of sugar is a little thicker so these are a little more fine but it works well
for the price you can't beat the price now you can see I'm all done I have
purple blue green yellow and red as you can see the bread isn't very red it's
not very berry you can always add more food coloring but the red food coloring
just doesn't turn out very bright for me but there it is a nice cheap inexpensive
way of getting you know colored sugar instead of buying sprinkles which are
very expensive if you have a large project you want to do maybe decorate a
cake or sugar whole bunch of sugar cookies you know it's a lot cheaper than
you know pain four or five dollars for something like this and only get in one
color you have a whole bunch of different colors and any color you want
so go ahead and do it and start saving some money and have fun like i said the
granules or the sugar is a lot smaller on these then they are on these but
still sugar still tastes like sugar so have fun enjoy and good luck
