This is for vegetarian but i am not sure it is for vegan sorry

Need this to dab/brush on to deepen the red on a special cake which has been made but fondant icing is far too orange colour - will this work? ?

I have used this many times to make red velvet cakes and to change colour of fondant . It has always worked for me but it is strong so you don't need a lot of it. Hope this helps.

Is this suitable for vegan recipes

Yes it is, the Extra range is suitable for both vegetarian and vegan diets :)

Brilliantly Red Food Colouring!

Bought these mainly for the red & blue colouring, as I previously had issues with other food colouring for my little boy's spiderman birthday cake coming out the wrong colour - particularly the red looking very pink - however these came out absolutely brilliantly! The kids even commented that the cake was "so red!". Really great product - highly recommend.

Vibrant colour but may stain

Plus: very good red dye, nice strong vibrant colour. Not needing to use much.Negatives: use carefully while using, will stay on fingers for some time but will eventually go away with a few washes. They baked goods may also leave a red stain (as it did on my friend’s lips and he complained he looked liked he was wearing lipstick. Though I think the colour suited him but 😂)
