Cabbage Blue Food Dye

1. 1

   Bring cabbage and 3 cups water to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat and cook until cabbage is soft and liquid is reduced by about a third, 20-25 minutes.

2. 2

   Remove cabbage with a spider or slotted spoon; discard. Add sugar to cabbage liquid and simmer, swirling pan occasionally, until liquid is a very deep purple and has reduced to about 1 cup, 10-15 minutes. Let dye cool, then stir in baking soda. Mix into frosting or royal icing to make desired color.
