An amaretto question

So I played around with the Ians Vivarium morph calculator (no actual breeding plans as of yet, just killing time) and hypothetically paired my amber male and lavender female. According to the calculator they'd only produce normals with hets for lavender, caramel and hypo. However, isn't the amaretto genetically caramel+hypo+lavender? Do I have my genetics knowledge completely backwards or shouldn't an amber+lavender breeding have a chance of producing amarettos?

You have the genes right, but an amaretto has to get the caramel, hypo and lavender genes from both parents. If you bred your two together you would get all normals that were het for caramel, hypo, and lavender. If you raised up a pair of the babies and bred them together you would then have a chance of producing amarettos.
