It's the clear that causes it, not the color.

When I was using NS Caramel to make petals on flower implosions I always got a little bluish halo, using both pyrex and simax clear, although I've heard that the pyrex clear is much better for getting the halo effect.

It's the silver in the color making its way to the surface.
