Colour Mill - Fondant
Red Fondant 250 g
Red throughout for covering and modelling
Colour Mill Red Fondant is a professional-quality, ready-to-use fondant, coloured throughout: vivid, opaque red that does not turn pink when kneaded. Supple texture, controlled elasticity, rolls out smoothly without cracking or tearing.
The 250 g size is intended for small decorations, modelled flowers and individual projects rather than covering an entire cake. It can be worked without sticking excessively to the work surface and retains its properties for several weeks after opening if resealed properly.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our advice
Is this red fondant suitable for modelling a whole rose?
Yes, its flexibility makes it possible to shape fine petals that curve without breaking or losing their colour.
Does the red darken as it air-dries?
The colour remains stable; only the surface firms up slightly as it dries, with no noticeable colour change.
Can this red fondant be mixed with white to make a vivid pink?
Yes, this is the recommended method for achieving a vibrant pink rather than a pastel pink, by adding the colour gradually.
