Gel Colorant 100g - Blue (Electric Blue) - ProGel XXL

Gel food coloring in Blue shade, professional 100g size

ProGel XXL Blue evokes electric cobalt blue, bright summer sky. This concentrated gel food coloring in professional 100 g size is designed for boutique pastries and volume production workshops. Especially sought after for mass production of baby shower boy tiered cakes and ocean and adventure-themed layer cakes for children's birthdays, it combines the technical advantages of classic ProGel gel with a size designed for profitability in professional settings.

The signature advantage of ProGel: it is a universal water and oil dye, working equally well on water-based bases (royal icing, water glazes, syrups, meringues) and fat-based bases (buttercream, ganache, tempered chocolate, pastry fondant). One tube for the entire pastry range, whereas Colour Mill dyes require 2 separate ranges (lipo + hydro). The 100 g size equals about 4 tubes of 25 g with approximately 30% savings per gram. Ideal for pastry shops that regularly place event orders.

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 drops.
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 integration without lumps.
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.
