hi guys... i'm thumping my head again... how would you go about making a translucent type of caramel color?

i would think you'd put together brown oxide, yellow and a tad of orange? does this sound right?

TIA

I would try clear MP, maybe with a little bit of white MP melted into it. So it is kind of creamy clear.

Then here are the colors that stood out to me;



You may have to play around with them and make a few test bars before you get the ideal color.

kewl thanks guys!

Also - keep in mind that if you have a caramel scent, it will probably discolor. Most sweet, dessert scents do. Either make sure that it doesn't discolor or use a stabilizer.

i have stablizer. love that stuff...

Won't stabilizer cloud the caramel in clear?

hmm...possibly, I didn't think of that... making small test bars is always a good idea when your trying something new.

it prob won't matter too much since i'll be putting in a bit of white mp in it for creamyness...
