Start with royal blue ready made fondant if you can find it like Fondarific..It has funky flavors..Then add black to it and it will turn navy.I don't know about the taste but it should be okay...

I've never used Fondarific but I'll see if I can find it. Does it taste good, aside from coloring?
I just made a dark blue, but not quite navy. I used Wilton's royal blue, with some black added. It's the "Living Room" cake in my profile. I didn't want to go much darker, but I think it would be no problem.
I used MMF. The taste was fine, but it turned everyone's mouth blue!

Wow...LOL
Ok. I will look for Fondarific, which is my 1st choice, so I don't have to kill my hands. If I can't find it, then I will kill my hands & color it.
Thanks for all your input!
Fondarific comes in neat flavors like Lemon for yellow,orange,Strawberry and tutti frutti etc..I don't know what blue is but it probably is blue rasberry or blueberry.Do a google search to see where it is sold by you.

Great. I will...thanks!
I just made some navy MMF, I actually added ALOT of the Americolor navy when it was in the liquid stage and let it sit. It didnt quite come out navy, came out more of a country blue, but with just a little black and royal blue it came out perfect. It was used for the Major promotion cake in my photos. Good Luck!
Hello MacsMom I want to take the time to thank you for the BC flavor MMF I made a batch to try it and I love it. I don't know what it was. the fondant looked sooooo white and the flavor was so good. I had try the regular mmf recipe and it always turn out a diferent color. (cream color)
I also have a question for color fondant do you add color to the mmf? do you recomend using the spray gun?
thank you so much
ChefMasters and Americolors navy blue work well.

Color the mmf - just stir the color into the melted marshmallows. Airbrushing risks scratches and fingerprints.
The School colors for this cake are Navy, Gold, and White.
So... I just made Navy Blue Fondant with Navy Blue Coloring and a little black and it looked more like a dark green! I finally added just a little brown to tone down the green and then a whole lot more Navy Blue and ended up with something that can pass for a Dark Blue but I wouldn't call it Navy... It still has a little Green tinge to it...but it'll work. Next time.. if there is a next time, I'll certainly buy it already colored.
I learned this lesson with black and now I know that Navy Blue is in the same category with black... You buy it already made and colored!!! LOL But it was quite a learning experience. Thank goodness I'm only makeing the Cap and some trim with the blue. The book will be white trimmed in Blue and gold.
I just love those cakes that teach me a lesson that I'll never forget! Happy Baking!
AJust as an FYI for any reading these posts later on -yes, Americolor makes a navy, but I find it to be weird teal-ish navy - not what you would generally think of as navy. I post this as an heads up bc once you dye it, it is quite difficult to get it changed to something more identifiable as "navy". Not a bad color per se - but not what I would call "navy" either. If you use it, test dye a small amount before going at the whole thing!
Tell me about it.Michaels doesn't keep light blue in the store any more.I hate mixing fondant by hand.
AI really like their navy, but I know what you mean. I have actually started using their royal blue but just more of it. It seems to work. In a punch I mix electric blue and black in a paint palette then add it with a tooth pick to my fondant
