A deep, concentrated black for crisp contrast on a water-based mixture.
Azucren black gel food coloring is a must-have for high-contrast decorations: fondant, marzipan, sponge cakes, macarons, royal icing, or meringues. Its gel texture and water-soluble base allow it to disperse easily in all water-based preparations, for an intense color without overdoing it.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our advice
Do you need a lot of gel for a deep black?
The gel is concentrated: a few drops are enough for an intense color. It’s best to add it gradually and mix between each addition rather than measuring it all at once.
Does this coloring stain less than other food-grade black colorings?
Its resealable gel texture limits spills compared with liquid coloring, but it is still highly concentrated: handle it with a clean utensil and avoid direct contact with skin or light-colored clothing.
Can it be paired with brown food coloring for a wood effect?
Yes, use brown as the base and add small touches of black to deepen the veins or shadows, particularly on fondant.
