Can’t help with red, but the best for black is squid ink. Yes, really. It’s what’s used to make black pasta. I’ve had cake with black frosting dyed with it and there’s no squid-y or fishy flavor.
But enough of it and your poo will look like nuclear waste.
For anyone who wants to have a non lethal go at this: witness.
I tried it. It still kinda sucks but I didn't have to call poison control.
You need to get some legal paperwork in place that can secure not only your current and future medical care in your partners name, but that also explicitly excludes your mom.
If you do get another dog, service or other, get it microchipped and add in the coding that noone but you or partner are to make medical choices. At least its some attempt of control.
Also, hopefully this gives your a smile. Since everyone needs a chance on the fury road. https://www.amazon.ca/Wilton-710-5521-Silver-Color-Mist/dp/B005KTVG86
you can pick it up from Amazon (non-affiliate link). I've used this one and enjoyed it. I think it comes in little packets which may be easier to keep longer (might be the sacs OP is talking about).
Pam is a cooking spray, now that I think it through it wouldn't work for your purpose. Try food-colour spray, I bet it would do the trick. Comes in any colour you want, even sparkles, and it's ethanol-based so the solvent will just evaporate without diluting the tabs or wicking acid from the tab which might happen if you use a brush. If you try it out, let us know how it goes!

Here, grab a can and be witnessed. May you ride eternal, shiny and chrome.
The M3 really is mostly an I6 machine except for stuff like the deviation to the E92. A very sweet sounding deviation though.
I agree, for 1-2 pieces depending on their size, oven cleaner, after that lye bath. Best deal I found was this but they won't ship to the Aloha State... cause... It's CAUSTIC, https://www.amazon.com/Sodium-Hydroxide-Grade-Caustic-Pound/dp/B07KNR9SVF/ref=sr_1_4_mod_primary_new?crid=C0I3IWFCB05O&keywords=sodium+hydroxide+lye+food+grade&qid=1667332579&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIwLjAwIiwicXNhIjoiMC4wMCIsInFzcCI6IjAuMDAifQ%3D%3D&sbo=RZvfv%2F%2FHxDF%2BO5021pAnSA%3D%3D&sprefix=Sodium+Hydroxide+lye%2Caps%2C191&sr=8-4
And yeah folks pure lye drain cleaner works too, just clean with soapy water & rinse.
I ordered this off of Amazon and it works really well, it's also a lot finer than most and mixes easy. https://www.amazon.com/Sodium-Hydroxide-Grade-Caustic-Pound/dp/B07KNR9SVF/ref=sxts_rp_s_a_sp_1_0?content-id=amzn1.sym.e1d0fd65-dbff-454d-9e35-926f4c285911%3Aamzn1.sym.e1d0fd65-dbff-454d-9e35-926f4c285911&crid=2IVXDB1DBI1F5&cv_ct_cx=lye+foo...
Would this be good? To be clear, could I make cream cheese frosting and then airbrush that red/black?
Water is food grade but if too much gets in your lungs, you drown.
This sodium hydroxide (Lye) powder is food grade, but if it's too strong it also burns away your skin.
This phosphoric acid is food grade but if it is mishandled you can get severe burns.
Alcohol is food grade. It's also incredibly toxic.
Diatomacious earth in the right context, such as externally where at most it might cause some skin dryness, however breathing it will do the same to your lungs as it does the bugs. Best case is a lot of coughing and some mild throat and lung irritation. A cat isn't smart enough to know not to sniff the white powder.
Food grade isn't a free for all on safety.
Gel is not "very expensive". I use this and it works great. Yeah it is more expensive than the grocery store stuff, but it also goes a lot further.
When I started learning I got a color kit with a little bit of everything. Started doing it during quarantine and I still have not emptied any of the bottles. I got this one:
Homemade buttercream and gel food coloring is where you want to be : ) When we say gel, we mean this stuff, not the kind you buy in tubes from the grocery store. Americolor is the popular brand.
Buy it wherever you wan, but the price tag in that entry is comparable to how much it will cost from any vendor. Those bottles will last through many, many baking projects. There are also larger color sets; the one I linked is fine for 99% of home baking.
Good luck on your project! If it seems overwhelming, I would just pick one ball, probably the football since you can use chocolate icing as a commenter mentioned above, and focus on that : )

Chefmaster and Americolor both are good options and have some starter sets as linked above. It still will take several drops but the colors do tend to darken as they sit out as well.

> FDA approved lye is different from caustic lye
Food grade lye is exactly caustic lye, just a very pure form of it (no adulterants). And it's not diluted at all, it just crystals of sodium hydroxide. Example.
Food grade lye is used by dissolving appropriate quantities in water. It is used for instance to promote browning in bagels. It's not (primarily) intended to react with carbon dioxide, since that would reduce the rise (bubbles) of baked goods.
It's not toxic, but it is, as you say, caustic in solid or concentrated liquid form.
How long have they been soaping and do you know what kind of soaping they do?
I soap mostly cold process which means I mix all the stuff, put it in a mold then take it out to cure. So these things may not be applicable to melt and pour. What I would love to receive is:
The basics::
A big ol slab mold (and box to support the sides/bottom if needed)
A gift card to wholesale supplies plus (fragrances can get exspensive and different folks like different scents).
A nice stick blender
A mica assortment
A milk throther (to mix the colorants)
Materials they will likely use if doing hot or cold process are oils! Coconut oil, palm oil (wholesale supplies is ethically sourced and comes in a nice bucket) olive oil and castor oil are the main ones. I've used pumpkin seed, avocado, grapeseed, lard, walnut.. they will also use lye (https://www.amazon.com/Sodium-Hydroxide-Grade-Caustic-Pound/dp/B07KNR9SVF/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?crid=1ICCFOB04JI6L&keywords=lye&qid=1638990005&sprefix=lye%2Caps%2C348&sr=8-3) is the brand I use with good result.
The frills:: Sodium lactate
Clay (morracan red clay, Dead Sea mud, kaolin clay)
Crushed pumice
Titanium dioxide
Hope this helps! Feel free to ask any questions :)
Might be a good time to pick this up: https://www.amazon.com/Wilton-710-5521-Metallic-Color-Silver/dp/B005KTVG86?th=1 and go nut! (PS read the Q&A section and the reviews for more Mad Max Madness!)
I used MHRB I put the dish back in the freezer a while ago and took it out now I see nothing but early it was surrounding the crystals you could probably see a outline in the pic I used Belle food grade sodium hydroxide white distilled vinegar tap water and Klein strip naphtha I got it all off of Amazon except the vinegar I've been having it https://www.amazon.com/Sodium-Hydroxide-Grade-Caustic-Pound/dp/B07KNR9SVFhttps://www.amazon.com/2-Pack-VM-NAPTHA-QT-KLEAN-STRIP/dp/B01LWRQPWK/ref=mp_s_a_1_3_mod_primary_new?crid=36MO5LV1ND04D&dchild=1&keywords=klean+strip+naphtha&qid=1... I also followed a video by this dude called Chris cantelmo on how to make it idk msds sds
Yeah there is such a thing as food grade lye. Here's a link to it: https://www.amazon.com/Sodium-Hydroxide-Grade-Caustic-Pound/dp/B07KNR9SVF
You really shouldn't try preaching what you don't know.
You use food grade lye for things like cosmetics, soap making, making dmt etc.
Don't use non food grade lye for making dmt.
Then I think you will enjoy the customer questions and reviews of the silver food safe metallic mist For all your, uh, cake decorating needs.
I BAKE, I EAT, I BAKE AGAIN!!!
For an even better laugh, just read the Amazon reviews for Wilton Metallic Spray: Wilton Metallic, 1.5 oz, Silver Color Mist https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005KTVG86/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_Y50Q95T41KC8AMB4BE9S
I used the Wilton Kelly green gel food coloring and bought this set on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Wilton-Icing-Colors-12-Count-Gel-Based/dp/B0000CFN0Y/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=wilton+food+coloring+gel&qid=1613429111&sr=8-3 You can also buy an 8 count pack that has the green as well, or just the green itself.
Yeah it's a mediocre mistake to use paint over the food spray.
In case one hasn't read the reviews on amazon it has a good number of reviews and questions that are on point.
I use both Wilton and AmeriColor and both produce great colors, IMO.
AmeriColor is sold in Canada. Did you mean you can’t find it at retail stores?

No.... you need the base material. Lye is used to make soap but you can’t get lye from soap. You also need chemical goggles and caustic resistant gloves, lye is serious business (this is why I recommended just buying a cheap cowash)
Here’s the site I found with the recipe:
https://mommypotamus.com/shampoo-bar-recipe/
The link for lye sends you to amazon. I would buy this:
Sodium Hydroxide - Pure - Food Grade (Caustic Soda, Lye) (2 Pound Jar) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07KNR9SVF/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_5XXLEbNAMZ5E2
If you do this please be really careful! The scene from fight club where Ed Norton ends up with a chemical burn on his hand, that was lye.
