However, the gel remains preferable for coloring very fatty preparations like some buttercreams where powder incorporation takes more time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7220; font-size: 15px; margin-top: 16px;\"\u003eWhat is the difference between Deep Purple and Black Magic?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eDeep Purple is a very dark purple that can appear black in small amounts but reveals purple highlights under direct light. Black Magic is a true black with a deep finish and no colored reflections. For theatrical effects, deep violet shades, or mystical themes, choose Deep Purple. For an absolute black with no reflections, choose Black Magic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7220; font-size: 15px; margin-top: 16px;\"\u003eHow much production with a 5 g jar?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eFor dry use to create shaded effects or light dusting, one jar covers about 80 to 120 individual pieces. For diluted paint use, expect 200 to 300 pieces depending on the fineness of the patterns. For incorporation into buttercream, one jar colors about 1 kg of cream to an intense purple. For tempered chocolate, one jar colors 800 g to 1 kg of white chocolate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7220; font-size: 15px; margin-top: 16px;\"\u003eDoes the purple turn blue or pink?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eNo, the Deep Purple pigment is formulated to remain a true deep purple after drying and crystallization. This is one of the major problems with low-quality purple colorants that turn blue-indigo (excess blue) or magenta (excess red). The Rainbow Dust formulation precisely balances the two pigments E122 and E133.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7220; font-size: 15px; margin-top: 16px;\"\u003eCompatible with tempered white chocolate?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eYes, perfectly, it is even one of the flagship applications of Deep Purple. The powder is incorporated directly into melted white chocolate without graininess or causing the chocolate to seize. For a uniform purple, mix 2 to 3 minutes with a spatula until particles are fully dispersed. The color remains stable during tempering and after crystallization.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7220; font-size: 15px; margin-top: 16px;\"\u003eHow to avoid pigment clumps during dilution?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003ePour the alcohol gradually (drop by drop at first), mix thoroughly with a toothpick, and crush any lumps against the side of the dish. The ideal consistency is creamy like slightly thick India ink. Too rapid dilution always creates lumps that would mark the surface unevenly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7220; font-size: 15px; margin-top: 16px;\"\u003eCan it be used for coloring macarons?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eYes, incorporate into Italian or French meringue before macaronage, starting with a very small amount then adjusting gradually. Be careful not to add too much to avoid loosening the meringue. For surface decoration of baked shells, apply with a fine brush using diluted paint ideal for precise patterns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7220; font-size: 15px; margin-top: 16px;\"\u003eDoes the pigment withstand baking?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eYes, for low-temperature baking (meringues 90-100°C), maintaining excellent chromatic stability. For high-temperature baking (biscuits baked at 180°C), the color may slightly fade or shift chromatically. Recommendation: for decorated biscuits, incorporate Deep Purple into the royal icing after baking rather than into the biscuit dough itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7220; font-size: 15px; margin-top: 16px;\"\u003eIs it suitable for vegan and vegetarian diets?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eYes, the composition based on synthetic colorants E122 and E133 is compatible with vegan and vegetarian diets. No animal-derived ingredients are used in the formula. However, note the mandatory warning on E122 (Azorubine) regarding its possible effect on children's activity and attention, to be mentioned in-store for orders intended for young consumers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7220; font-size: 15px; margin-top: 16px;\"\u003eIs it suitable for CAP Pastry candidates?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eAbsolutely, the pot format and long shelf life are perfectly suited to the CAP kit.
