I wasn't sure so I ordered both colors and I think the super red is the "true" red that I was looking for. Here are a couple of quotes from colorboy. Hope they help.

You can get a deep rich red using our Super Red Soft Gel Paste. You don't have to start with a pink or any other trick. The truth is, it takes a lot of color to make red and the more raw color you put into food color the more it costs. AmeriColor saturates its product with as much raw color as possible so you dont have to use as much in your icing to get a red color. Also our base ingredients were formulated for use in icing and allow the color to disperse evenly and faster without getting any bitter taste.
The best thing about all of this is that you can try AmeriColor for your self and be your own judge as it is available for sale at the CAKE CENTRAL STORE! So don't take my word for it, see for yourself

The reason you can get a real red color from AmeriColor is because the color strength (Raw color saturation) is superior to any other company on the market today..this is true with all our colors! The Base ingredients in our Trade Mark: Soft Gel Paste allows the color to blend (So you actually have to use less color)
When we started AmeriColor we strived to solve problems faced by the cake decorator and although our colors are used for many applications they were specifically designed for cake decorating and icing! If you want a real dark red then Super Red is your best bet. want a bright almost florescent red, try the Holiday Red, Red Red is a true red but not as dark as Super Red. Xmas Red is the color of Santa. Tulip Red is an orangey red made of only Red for those that want to stay away from Red#3 it is also what most companies call their no-taste red. But hey all of our colors are virtually no-taste due to "State of the Art" formulation that actually encapsulates the color particle at the molecular level...there a mouthful. been hanging around the technicians too much ;0
Any way if any one has questions about AmeriColor, or problems they are facing with our color send ColorBoy a jingle and we at AmeriColor will do our best to answer your questions

Thanks smileyface, I thought I was going to have to bump again. The reds look so close and I could not tell. I have both, but I did not want to waste since I knew I would need to use most of the bottle for what I need.
