Capturing the Colors of Fall

Autumn is synonymous with a rich palette of colors that evoke warmth and comfort. Think deep oranges, earthy browns, muted greens, and golden yellows. Sugar Art’s Fall Gel Colors capture these shades perfectly, allowing you to infuse your creations with the spirit of the season.

1. Rich Golden Harvest

Nothing says fall like the golden hues of autumn leaves or the warm glow of a fall sunset. Our new Butterscotch Gel Color is just the ticket for fall! This color is also included in the Gel 3.0 Bundle.

This perfect tone is for creating vibrant shades both gold and yellow hues that remind us of fields of wheat and the soft light of autumn evenings. Use this color to add a touch of golden sunshine to your cupcakes or to create realistic fall leaves on your cakes and cookies!

2. Cranberry Dreams

Our new Rouge Gel Color is a muted, yet rich red with a hint of purple and yellow, reminiscent of ripe cranberries and the deep hues of late autumn flowers. This color is perfect for adding a touch of elegance to your baked goods, whether you’re creating a sophisticated fall wedding cake or a simple batch of cranberry cookies.

3. Stone Roads

Stone roads filled with fallen leaves is one of the most beautiful aspects of fall! Our new Stone Gel Color is just that - the most unique formulation, with the slightest hint of green at the darker tones. It is the perfect neutral green-gray color! 

4. Stormy Nights

Autumn is also about imminent storms, too! Ushering in the cooler temperatures of fall, at least in Texas! :) This Stormy Gel Color is so beautifully formulated, that it will quickly become your very favorite blue to use in all of your sugar art! 

5. Green Leaves

Muted greens, like those found in the evergreens or the fading leaves, are another key component of the fall color palette. Our new Leaf Green Gel Color CAN achieve a beautiful Forest Green if you'll use enough of the color, and not too much icing. Our Leaf Green Gel is a versatile shade that can be used for everything from leaves and vines to grass and moss on your autumn cakes and cookies. It pairs beautifully with the other fall colors to create a cohesive and natural look.

6. Muted Purples

Autumn cannot come without the thought of beautiful, muted, purples. These tones are a necessity for Halloween as well! Our new Frosted Iris Gel Color is the perfect "cool" toned purple, meaning it leans more of a blue purple, not a red purple. You will LOVE this dreamy color!

Tips for Using Sugar Art Fall Colors For Royal Icing and Buttercream

Now that you’re familiar with the stunning colors available in the Sugar Art Fall Gel Colors collection, here are some tips for using them effectively in your baking:

1. Start with a Small Amount

Because these gel colors are highly concentrated, it’s best to start with a small amount and gradually add more until you achieve the desired shade. This not only helps you control the color intensity but also prevents any waste.

2. Mix Well

Ensure that you mix the color thoroughly into your icing, fondant, or batter to avoid streaks. If you’re working with a large batch, consider using a stand mixer to help distribute the color evenly.

3. Experiment with Blending

Don’t be afraid to mix different gel colors to create custom shades. 

4. Use White to Lighten

If you want a softer, more pastel version of any of the fall colors, mix in a small amount of MASTER ELITE WHITE (we do not offer a white gel color). This is particularly useful for creating ombre effects or for delicate details that require a lighter touch.

5. Store Properly

To keep your gel colors in perfect condition, store them in a cool, dark place with the lids tightly closed. This will prevent them from drying out or losing their vibrancy.
