Gel Color 25g - Sky Blue - ProGel

Sky Blue gel food coloring, concentrated 25g bottle

ProGel Sky Blue evokes a clear summer sky, pool water in the sun. This concentrated gel food coloring in 25 g size is designed for professional pastry chefs and demanding cake design enthusiasts. Especially sought after for children's birthday cupcakes with sky and cloud themes and royal icing cookies shaped like planes, clouds, or fish, it offers a stable and intense shade with just a few toothpick tips.

ProGel's signature advantage: it is a universal water and oil-based dye, working equally well on water-based bases (royal icing, water glazes, syrups, meringues, macarons) and fat-based bases (buttercream, ganache, tempered chocolate, pastry fondant, sugar paste). One tube for the entire pastry range, whereas Colour Mill dyes require 2 separate ranges (lipo + hydro). Concentrated 25 g size covers 30 to 50 preparations depending on desired intensity.

Sky Blue: 3 shades depending on dosage

The shade subtly adjusts according to the dosage without losing its identity. ProGel gel is dosed with a toothpick tip for precise control.

Instructions for use

1. Sampling: dip the tip of a clean toothpick into the ProGel gel and take a small amount. The concentrated gel format is measured by the tip, not by the drop.
2. Initial dosage: place 1 tip of a toothpick in 250 g of preparation for pastel shades, 2 to 3 tips for bright shades, 5 to 8 tips for dark and saturated shades.
3. Incorporation: mix vigorously with a spatula or mixer for 60 seconds to evenly distribute the gel. The gel consistency facilitates lump-free integration.
4. Rest and stabilization: cover in contact and let rest for 15 to 30 minutes. The shade develops and fully reveals itself during rest.
5. Adjustment: if the shade is too pale, take 1 to 2 additional tips and remix. Always use a clean toothpick to preserve the gel in the tube.
