Key strengths of the ProGel range
-
Highly Concentrated and Cost-Effective: The strong pigment density of this colorant lets you use a minimal amount of product for rich results. Each 25-gram tube guarantees long-lasting use across many projects.
-
Precise Dosing: The soft plastic tube packaging allows for very accurate gel extraction, drop by drop. The tube matches the color inside for immediate identification.
-
Technical Versatility: This colorant is formulated to effectively tint sugar paste (fondant), almond paste, buttercream, royal icing, as well as cookie dough before baking.
Usage advice
Incorporating ProGel Navy Blue is smooth and guarantees a result without streaks or lumps:
-
Remove the safety seal located under the screw cap.
-
Add a small squeeze of gel to your mixture.
-
Knead (for doughs) or stir (for creams) until the color is evenly spread.
-
Let the mixture rest a few minutes, as dark colors like navy blue tend to settle and deepen slightly after mixing.

Patissland expert tip: To obtain a very dark navy blue leaning towards "Night Blue," you can add a tiny touch of ProGel Black to your final mix. Always work on a white base to keep the purity of the primary Navy color.
