Create a 3D matrix with zeros function

I have a colored image, along with its red, green, and blue slices.

%Red slice

Color_image(:,:,1) = [

    0.1404    0.1181    0.5174    0.1853    0.1970

    0.7209    0.6983    0.9076    0.8515    0.5259

    0.7139    0.3624    0.0197    0.6650    0.4536

    0.4115    0.3160    0.7876    0.3144    0.6214

    0.9239    0.7383    0.8414    0.7929    0.5493];

%Green slice

Color_image(:,:,2) = [

    0.3214    0.5073    0.8719    0.3824    0.3846

    0.4178    0.5498    0.8380    0.1565    0.0525

    0.3253    0.9336    0.3601    0.0547    0.6873

    0.7746    0.6559    0.3224    0.7198    0.0416

    0.7200    0.1234    0.8255    0.0714    0.0355];

%Blue slice

Color_image(:,:,3) = [

    0.9097    0.3499    0.5066    0.6442    0.7992

    0.6706    0.4552    0.6817    0.8266    0.5359

    0.6087    0.6807    0.5263    0.3405    0.8173

    0.4936    0.0177    0.5669    0.5567    0.2896

    0.8476    0.6322    0.2102    0.4169    0.6036];

How would I create a 3D matrix of Color_image with the zeros function?

zeros(size(Color_image))
