tried to get a peachy color and mixed white and yellow and red--it looked way to pink so I mixed in a little orange and then took it over to the neighbors--their daughter is artsy and she said to add more yellow so I did and it looked good in the cup but when I poured it, it seems to orange--I am not gelling it so it should soften...……………...I hope
 
Have you tried infusing oil with paprika? That may give you a peach color. Whether it will last through saponification is questionable.
 
it really lightened up over night. cant wait to unmold--it almost looks to light now haha.
no I have not tried using paprika--I have thought about it though. but since this is for a customer I want to make sure it sticks
