I did a search and did not find a thread that answered my question, so forgive me if this has been asked and I missed it.
I've been working with M&P in a loaf mold. I love the mold and have been trying a lot of new things - and discovering some limits of M&P. I recently made a striped loaf (I can add photos when I'm home) that alternates clear, brightly colored stripes with white, opaque stripes. I was thrilled with the initial result. Now, a week later, my bright colors are bleeding like crazy. I actually kind of like the effect. However, I am now reading up on non-bleeding colorants for M&P.
From what I've been reading, if I still want those bright colors and very see-through layers, I may have to just stick with bleeding colors. Is this correct? Everything I'm reading about non-bleeding colorants (powders and liquids) is that I will get muted colors and/or my clear will become opaque.
I would love to hear other people's opinions, experiences and advice.
Thank you!
