Ingredients
1 1/4 cups warm water
a big pinch of sugar 1/8 teaspoon or so
2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
3 + colors of food dye, liquid or gel
Directions
In the first place mix the sugar in with the water. At that point sprinkle the yeast over the highest point of the water and let that sit and initiate for a couple of minutes. The yeast should begin to froth somewhat, as in the photograph above. That is the manner by which you know it's working. The sugar in the water just gives the yeast a touch of a remark it going. Consider it like some espresso toward the beginning of the day—a bit much, but rather it unquestionably kicks things off.
In a huge bowl mix together the flour and salt. Pour the yeast water in with the flour blend and mix until the point that simply consolidated, so the blend resembles a free mixture. We will ply the shading into the mixture, so you just need to blend it enough here with the goal that it's joined.
Separation the mixture into at least three a balance of, contingent upon what number of hues you need to utilize. I would prescribe no less than three, however you could utilize progressively on the off chance that you like. Place the batter segment on a cutting board or secured surface tidied with flour. I additionally prescribe wearing gloves amid this part. Add the sustenance shading to the mixture and massage it in so the shading gets all around scattered all through. On the off chance that you've at any point shaded fondant previously, this will be a fundamentally the same as process.
I attempted both gel and fluid sustenance hues since I was interested on the off chance that one would be less demanding to work with. I really had expected the gel would work better, as that is normally what works best in fondant or frostings. In any case, I really enjoyed working with the fluid nourishment color somewhat better. It's less demanding to spill, so do take care to cover your surfaces and wear gloves (an overskirt doesn't hurt either), however I thought it mixed into the mixture somewhat better. For the greenish blue and blue batters (above), I utilized gel shading, yet the yellow was a fluid shading.
Both function admirably however, so in the event that you as of now have either at your home, don't be hesitant to utilize it. Gracious, and in the event that you need to combine two hues, I would suggest blending them in a little bowl or something first and after that manipulating that into your mixture as it will all the more equitably make the shading you are going for.
When you have hued the majority of the batter, roll each area into a little log or thick snake (think primary school ceramics class). At that point wind them all together and move into a ball. Once more, this is truly like the marbled earth ring dishes I connected above, yet you simply don't smooth it as you improve the situation the dishes. Simply abandon it in a ball, put in a daintily oiled bowl, cover and permit to ascend in a warm spot for a hour or until multiplied in measure.
Tenderly collapse the mixture (it will have ascended by this point) and shape into a portion. In the event that you can shape in a way so the darker hues are outwardly, I would prescribe it on the grounds that the hull will dark colored as the bread heats, so it will be more perceptible on lighter hues. Be that as it may, this is only brief comment on the off chance that you can, no major ordeal if not.
Place in a gently buttered portion skillet, cover, and permit to ascend for one more hour.
At that point heat at 400°F for 25-28 minutes until the point when the best has daintily carmelized. Permit to cool before cutting.
