How do you make black out of food coloring?

Answer 1

You buy the little boxes of dye at the grocery store with the little drop bottles, and you drop 4 drops each of red and yellow in a dish, then two drops of each of blue and green. You have to use red in the black to get that true dark black color. Use it in larger increments if that isn't enough dye, although it should be enough to dye two cups of sugar for lollipops or one cup of icing.

It is a mix of the primary colors (red, yellow, and blue). Wilton makes a great black color, but it's corn based. I am making something that I'd like to share with someone with a corn allergy, so I'm looking for another (preferably natural) alternative.
