Most food colourings used are FD&C, or F&C colours (Food, Drug, Cosmetically approved) such as FD&C Blue No.1.

These are used in incredibly low concentrations, often around 0.01% to 0.0001%. They are almost all in water, and as such, a solution with colouring will have a Specific Gravity (S.G.) (Density) of the solvent, usually water. Water is 1 gram per cubic centimetre at 4°C.

As a solid, the density will vary with each specific colour, as in solid form they are different chemicals, and pack to different densities.

Is it possible to dilute food coloring so that all that is left is water?

No. It won't matter how much water you add, the coloring chemical(s) will still be there if only in trace amounts such as parts per trillion.Answer:Using the principles of Homeopathic remedies, that is diluting the solution over and over again, we find an interesting result. Lets start with a drop of food colouring. Assume it has a weight of 1/10th gram. Being generous assume it has a density and molecular weight similar to water that's about 1/20 of a mole or (6.02 x 1023)/20 molecules of colouring agent. Put the drop in a liter of water, mix it and withdraw a drop of the solution. It will contain 3 x1018 molecules. Repeat this process over and over putting a drop in, mixing and removing a drop of the new solution. Each removed drop contains the folowing number of molecules:Solution 2: 3 x1014 molecules in the dropSolution 3: 3 x1012 molecules in the dropSolution 4: 3 x108 molecules in the dropSolution 5: 3 x104 molecules in the dropSolution 6: 3 molecules in the dropNow here's the problem. When we mix these three molecules into the next liter we have almost no chance (1 in 3000) of getting even one molecule in the drop we take out. To all intents and purposes the colouring agent is gone.

How do you make pink with food coloring?

Fondant, as you probably know, needs to be kept pliable but not too loose. Adding regular liquid food colouring tends to make the fondant too soft and adding more icing sugar just lightens up the colour. For a good intense "hot pink" you will need to get to your closest supplier of cake decorating supplies and purchase the paste food colour. It comes in a small container (which you should be able to by separately). Mix in a small amount, knead the fondant (use gloves, no one need hot pink hands) and add more food colouring until you reach your desired intensity.
