I seem to have buggered up in more than one way.

colourblind version of a cake

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

That’s an amazing cake and I reckon the recipient will love it anyway

That’s wild. The bottom photo looks like it was coloured in Pantone 448 C, which was chosen for cigarette packaging.

That's the colour green beans looked like in the 80s when they'd been boiled to death.

Yeah, it won’t be an exact replication but it’s best available tool I know to get a guess.

Do you try and incorporate a different taste for colour differentiation ?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

Not in this case…

It's a beautiful cake, and I'm really sorry your plans have gone awry ❤️

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Thankyou, I’m having a bit of a thing about it.

That he won’t be able to see most of it colour wise!

Next time go for blue/yellow differentiation of colours not red & green. Red/green colorblindness is the most common I think, blue/yellow blindness is less common. Besides, how do we know that dinosaurs weren't khaki? We don't.
