For best results, use gel food coloring as it is more concentrated and won't thin out the icing as much as liquid food coloring. Store the icing in an airtight container at room temperature to prevent it from drying out. If the icing becomes too thick while decorating, add a few drops of water to thin it out. To achieve a super smooth finish, consider using an immersion blender to mix the icing.
