Brown Food Colouring for icing???

You can buy real brown colouring. Wiltons do one - if you google them you will find a stockist near you or you can get it online. Most of what you've suggested wont give you a true brown colour. It all depends though on how brown you need it to be for it to look effective kwim?

Thanks ladies. I ended up using melted chocolate in the icing and it turned out really well. Wasn't very dark (only used milk choc), but looked good, and tasted good too
