I like

Americolor just for that reason...it is in a squeeze bottle. I HATE dipping a toothpick in the jars over and over and over and never getting enough.

Americolor has really nice colors too. I ...

Maybe something with leaves in the yellow and orange with some purple berries on some little twigs/branches.

I've never done it before myself because I haven't needed to, but there are plenty of people on this site that put their fondant cakes in the fridge and say they have no problems with it. I have hear ...

You could bake it regular and then cut a piece of cake out, stick something in and then put the cake back and ice.

That's a great idea. Although it would still need to be food safe you wouldn't ha ...

I've never tried it before but I'm thinking the flavors may become muddled and lost when mixed together. You could try strawberry cake with chocolate icing or a chocolate cake with strawberry icing. ...
