Are you mostly using cool aid or some type of dye for your coloring? I know you have mentioned cool aid before.

I dye mostly with Rit now (formulas are shown in the recipes). The only Koolaid I regularly use now is Ice Blue Raspberry; I haven’t been able to come up with a Silver Doctor Blue that comes close to it.
