For macarons should I use food colouring paste as the recipe suggests or regular food colouring liquid?
Use the paste. Food coloring liquid will thin out the dough too much.
Can paste food coloring be substituted for liquid food color in baking?
Yes, you can. Just remember that food coloring paste is a lot thicker than liquid food color so you use a lot less. Start with just a tiny bit on the end of a spoon and add more in tiny amounts as necessary. Usually 1/2 teaspoon of gel paste is equal to about 1.5 oz of liquid food (to put it into perspective - a shot and a half of liquid) colouring

You CANNOT use liquid food coloring---that will ruin the candy. You CAN use a paste or power food coloring purchased at a craft store like Michaels, Joannes etc or a cake/candy supply store. Also some gourmet cooking stores will have the right coloring. You can also buy candy melts from the same type of stores. They have red and pink candy melts. Also seen candy melts at Walmart in the craft/sewing section of the store.

Do you use as much paste coloring as liquid food coloring in a cake recipe that calls for 2oz of red food coloring in a red velvet cake recipe?
No, not at all. The paste coloring has a much more intense coloring effect, so I would recommend using about a half teaspoon, then check the color to see if you need to add a bit more. But you will need to increase your liquid to compensate for the loss of 2 fluid ounces, which can be done by increasing the oil and/or buttermilk by 2 ounces.
