A Fresh Start For 2017 With Pantone Color Of The Year

Recipes To Color Buttercream And Fondant With This Year's Hottest Hue
January 12, 2017

Happy New Year from AUI Fine Foods! We’re so excited to get a fresh start in 2017, and we think the folks over at Pantone must be thinking the same thing. The color geniuses at Pantone have announced that the 2017 color of the year will be a bright, energetic, and refreshing yellow-green tone called (what else?) Greenery.

The fresh as a daisy color marks a big change from last year’s muted duo, Serenity and Rose Quartz . Maybe the people at Pantone are hoping for a year that feels a little more restorative than 2016. The official Pantone website  provides a fascinating explanation of the choice, but it mostly boils down to a desire for rejuvenation and harmony with man and nature. We can’t say no to that!

Since you’ll be sure to see this color popping up in requests for all sorts of specialty cakes and treats this year, we’ve done the hard work for you and worked out the formulae to perfectly replicate this color in buttercream and fondant with our Pastry Ideale colors. We hope that you’ll enjoy a year as fresh and fabulous as this great green!
