Rainbow Dust - ProGel
25 g Gel Food Coloring - Aqua Blue - ProGel
Aqua Blue gel food coloring, concentrated 25 g tube
ProGel Aqua Blue evokes clear pool water and a tropical seabed. This concentrated gel food coloring in a 25 g format is designed for professional pastry chefs and discerning cake design enthusiasts. Especially popular for ocean- and pool-themed children's birthday layer cakes and whale, dolphin, or fish-shaped royal icing cookies, it delivers a stable, intense shade with just a few toothpick tips.
ProGel's signature advantage: it's an all-purpose coloring for water- and oil-based mixtures; it works just as well in water-based mixtures (royal icing, water-based glazes, syrups, meringues, macarons) as in fat-based mixtures (buttercream, ganache, tempered chocolate, pastry fondant, sugar paste). One tube is all you need for the entire range of pastry applications, whereas other colorings require two separate ranges depending on the mixture used. The concentrated 25 g format covers 30 to 50 preparations, depending on the intensity desired.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our advice
What occasions are best suited to the Aqua Blue shade?
Destination wedding cakes on the beach. This is one of the uses where this shade really stands out.
Does ProGel work with all preparations?
Yes, ProGel is an all-purpose water- and oil-based gel: it works just as well with water-based mixtures (royal icing, icings, meringues, macarons) as with fat-based mixtures (buttercream, chocolate, ganache, fondant, sugar paste). One tube is all you need, whereas other food colorings require a separate range for each type of mixture.
Does ProGel gel mix with melted chocolate?
Yes, ProGel is designed for use with tempered chocolate, unlike conventional water-based gel food colorings, which cause chocolate to crystallize. Add a small amount of gel at the end of tempering, at 28-30 °C, and gently mix with a spatula.
