Here is a list of things that you can use to color food items, rather than food coloring.
- Red – Beet juice
- Red – Tomato Paste
- Green – Pesto
- Green – Blanched Spinach
- Orange – Colorante (Amazon)
- Yellow – Colorante (scant)
- Black – Activated Charcoal
- Black – Squid Ink
… and you can always use food coloring
Here is an example:
Color pie dough whatever color you like and roll thinly
Spray with Pam
Use metal spoons to form edible spoons – or use binder clips
Bake wrapped in foil – 5 minutes @ 350º
Put appetizers in the spoons
- Shred radish
- Olive tapenade mix
- Tomato
- Proscuitto
- Black River caviar
- Kalamata olives
- Salmon with creme fresh
- Fois gras
- Cheese
