You can simply use raw html tags like  foo  lt font color  red  gt bar lt  font gt  foo   Be aware that this will not survive a conversion of the notebook to latex   As there are some complaints about the deprecation of the proposed solution  They are totally valid and Scott has already answered the question with a more recent  i e  CSS based approach  Nevertheless  this answer shows some general approach to use html tags within IPython to style markdown cell content beyond the available pure markdown capabilities

An alternative way to do that  is to enter a LaTeX environment within the notebook and change color from there  which is great if you are more fluent in LaTeX than in HTML   Example     color red   text ciao      would display ciao in red

Similarly to Jakob s answer  you can use HTML tags  Just a note that the color attribute of font   lt font color     gt   is deprecated in HTML5  The following syntax would be HTML5-compliant   This  lt span style  color red  gt word lt  span gt  is not black    Same caution that Jakob made probably still applies      Be aware that this will not survive a conversion of the notebook to   latex
