Rainbow Dust - ProGel
25 g Gel Color - Mulberry - ProGel
Mulberry food coloring gel, concentrated 25 g tube
ProGel Mulberry evokes crushed wild blackberries, deep velvet. This concentrated 25 g food coloring gel is designed for professional bakers and discerning cake design enthusiasts. Especially sought after for high-end fall wedding cakes and ruby and diamond wedding anniversary layer cakes, it delivers a stable, intense shade with just a few toothpick dabs.
ProGel’s signature advantage: it’s a general-purpose color for water- and oil-based mixtures, and works just as well with water-based mixtures (royal icing, water-based glazes, syrups, meringues, macarons) as with fat-based mixtures (buttercream, ganache, tempered chocolate, pastry fondant, sugar paste). A single tube is all you need for your entire range of baked goods, whereas other food colors require two separate ranges depending on the mixture. Concentrated 25 g format covers 30 to 50 batches, depending on the desired intensity.

Frequently Asked Questions
Your Questions, Our Advice
When should I choose the Mulberry shade?
Autumn cocktail reception cupcakes. This is one of the occasions where this shade really stands out.
How can I avoid contaminating the tube?
Always use a new toothpick for each scoop, and never dip a used toothpick back into the mixture. This practice preserves the tube’s shelf life and keeps the gel pure.
How much should I use for 250 g of mixture?
For pastel shades: 1 toothpick tip. For bright shades: 2 to 3 tips. For dark shades: 5 to 8 tips. Always start with less and adjust gradually; it’s easier to intensify a color than to lighten it.
