Choosing the perfect formulation for decoration is important. The chemical affinity between the coloring agent and the base guides every creation. Water-soluble and fat-soluble products ensure perfect, uniform coloring while leaving the base material unaltered.
Water-soluble formulations: the energy of water
Designed to blend with water-soluble or sugar-based masses, these solutions create smooth, velvety nuances.
- Ideal bases: whipped cream, creams, yogurt, jellies, meringues, sugar paste, macarons, isomalt, and yeast-based doughs (bread, cookies, brioche).
- Concentrated gels (e.g., Gel Color): deliver vivid, deep color while maintaining the consistency of the mixtures.
- Powders (e.g., Water-Soluble Powder): the ideal choice for coloring baked goods.
- Liquids (e.g., Water-Based Liquid Color): perfect for both mass-coloring sugar paste and marzipan and for creating refined surface decorations.
- Airbrush solutions (e.g., Water-Based Pastel/Pearl Airbrush Colors): coat whipped cream and creams in a light, brilliant veil of color.
- Food-grade tempera (e.g., Tempera/Pearl Tempera): enhance freehand decorative skills with elegant watercolor effects on sugar paste.
Fat-soluble formulations: the power of fats
Designed to master high-fat products, these formulations deliver a flawlessly blended, luminous finish.
- Ideal bases: chocolate, compound coatings, buttercream, cocoa butter, and fat-based preparations.
- Semi-liquid compounds (e.g., Lipo): ready-to-use, ensuring consistent color shades on chocolate and buttercream.
- Fat-soluble powders (e.g., Powder Lake): a classic choice for master pastry chefs; they can be applied with a brush or mixed with alcohol or shellac.
- Colored cocoa butter (e.g., Cocoa Butter/Cocoa Butter Pearl): the premier choice for painting polycarbonate molds and giving chocolate unique, shimmering highlights.
- Airbrush solutions (e.g., Airbrush Chock Matt/Pearl): a special hydro-alcoholic base that adheres perfectly to the smooth surface of the chocolate for an impeccable finish.
