Hey all,
It's my first written post in My Baking Journal blog here!
Ok, i decided to pen on the Icing colours palette as my very first written post. 
I try to write as comprehensive as possible and as a start-off simple guide to baking terms. =) 
Hope this is beneficial to people to want to understand more.  

What are 'Icing colours'?
Icing colours are the edible food colours which can be tinted on cakes, cream, fondant..etc.

What about Icing colours palette?
In the market, there're few icing colours brands available, and all offered a wide range of colours like below chart: (Picture colours namings based on Wilton)
As you can from the chart, interesting colours of 'Black' and 'White' are actually available! 
Some people may not be comfortable eating something 'Black' coloured, but not to worry, they're really safe for consuming. =)

How to create a lighter/darker tone colouring?
You can purchase the colour of the next lighter/darker shade. Or adjust the colour density accordingly to the amount of colouring used.
