It is always okay to use food coloring in frosting. If you're only using one of the main food coloring colors, you really only need one to three drops to get a beautiful color in white frosting. You can also make your own colors by mixing the different colors together. There are equations for mixing on the back of every food coloring box, or online.

Happy Coloring!

Food coloring is non-toxic and contains absolutely no taste, perfect for coloring up a meal. Food coloring works in almost everything. Cake batter, waffle mix, pancakes, eggs, any of those are perfect for brightening up a meal with food coloring!

Ofcoarse! But not too much! If you want to than only do a couple of drops at a time and stirring it in every several drops. And while doing this, keeo in mind the color will be slightly darker after cooking!
