Red velvet cake, royal icing, and even ice cream all rely on bold red hues to make them visually stunning. But if you’re like me, you’re always looking for natural food dyes instead of artificial colors that come with health concerns. So, I did an experiment with my gluten-free red velvet mug cake with almond flour to compare three different natural red food coloring options: beet powder, hibiscus powder, and plant-based red food dye. The results? Each had its own strengths, weaknesses, and unique uses. Let’s break it down!

Thank you for the experiment! I use hibiscus in a few things and find the color does mute often, even in liquids. It has to be a super strong tea, but with that, you get the strong flavor. If I remember correctly, adding lemon juice helps retain the color, but again, may altar the flavor. I'd have to check that to be sure.
