How to use natural purple food coloring
Follow the current bottle directions. Measure a small trial, mix thoroughly in your actual base and record the amount and finished shade before scaling. Base color, acidity and processing can affect the result; drop sizes vary with the dispenser.
The currently published general use range is 0.5–1% by weight. Confirm the current directions and percentage basis for your application; this range does not guarantee a particular shade in every recipe.

Food coloring questions
Red Radish & Huito vs. Sweet Potato Purple
-
Red Radish & Huito (this product): water-soluble with listed ingredients of propylene glycol, distilled water, huito and red radish. It is listed for cooled frosting, yogurt and glazes, with a current general range of 0.5–1% by weight. Add it after heating and cooling.
-
Sweet Potato Purple: uses purple sweet potato and is listed as a concentrated, triple-strength color for cold or room-temperature applications. Its page lists water- and oil-based uses but advises confirming compatibility in the exact formulation; request the complete ingredient declaration when it affects your purchase.
The names do not establish a universal shade or strength comparison. Choose by source, application and current directions, then test the finished recipe. Compare Sweet Potato Purple Food Color.
Can I use this color in cake frosting?
Use a compatible cooled frosting or icing and follow the current directions. Check the final shade in a small portion before coloring the whole batch. Coloring frosting does not establish performance in hot cake batter.
Which size should I choose for a trial or bulk order?
Compare the available sizes and prices above. Establish the recipe with a small trial before scaling. For larger quantities or formulation questions, ask about bulk food coloring.
