Used some white color but it did not work ok so I am glad you like it. Kellitripp: thx. I love pink and brown together celandoncupcake and Wuff: thx (big smile)

I really like the swirls. I use BC too and you can easily get the soft pink tone that you want. I think it depends on the coloring itself, I don't particularly like to use Wilton as I find their colors a bit too harsh. I'm using Chef Master, their pink is more on the muted tone side.

Trish CM: thx. I buy my food color from the UK. I have only two from Wilton though. I have never heard of Chef Master colors. Have heard about Americolors from the US which should be very good. Thank you all!

Yes! that one and the other one are my big faves. Love pink and brown on cakes. But i agree blue and brown is also good together.

IMPORTANT!!!!! Unless you and another Flickr user, jennypbj, have gone into opening Vanilla's Cupcakes in Jacksonville, FL, then there is a case of copyright infringement. The bakery is using this exact image (along with other Flickr users' pics) on their website, www.vanillascupcakery.com. This picture appears when you navigate to the 'about us' page and click on the 'read more' link in the testimonials. I thought it important that you know this since you have 'All Rights Reserved' on your images.
