    Granulated - like the bakeries use on the pumpkin-shaped
    cookies?  You could ask you local bakery where they get
    theirs...or how the make it if they do it themselves!
    
    I've used the powdered colorings in confectioners sugar
    (they're about the same powdery consistency), but not
    for granulated sugar.

3644.2Packaged Colors!SOLVIT::PAGLIARULOMon Sep 28 1992 14:3712
    
    I picked up a package of different colored sugars last week.
    Unfortunately, I can't remember if it was at Market Basket in 
    Hudson (NH) or at Shaws in Nashua.
    
    It's a package of four containers of "cookie" sugars...I bought it
    for the orange and it had blue but the others are just a blur in
    my memory right now. It was the first time I had seen anything but
    red or green and seized the opportunity to buy some before they
    were discontinued ;-)

3644.4make your ownLEDS::SIMARDjust in time.....Tue Sep 29 1992 14:528
    You can also make your own by mixing red and yellow food coloring into 
    granulated sugar.  This is how I make my colored sugars.  There is so
    little moisture it doesn't dissolve the sugar.
    
    Try it and let us know.
