Gel remains preferable for coloring fatty preparations (buttercream, ganaches), where powder incorporates poorly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7220; font-size: 15px; margin-top: 16px;\"\u003eHow much production with a 2 g jar?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eFor dry use for shaded effects or light dusting, one jar covers about 30 to 50 individual pieces. For diluted paint use, expect 80 to 120 pieces depending on the fineness of the patterns. For incorporation into royal icing, 1 jar colors about 500 g of icing to an intense black.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7220; font-size: 15px; margin-top: 16px;\"\u003eDoes the black turn gray or violet?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eNo, the Black Magic pigment is formulated to remain deep black after drying and crystallization. This is one of the major issues with low-quality black dyes and homemade mixes (which turn gray or blue-violet). The E153 pigment used is chromatically stable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7220; font-size: 15px; margin-top: 16px;\"\u003eCompatible with colored sugar paste?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eYes, but the final intensity depends on the base color. On white or ivory fondant, the black expresses fully. On brightly colored fondant (red, yellow, orange), the result takes on a slightly warmer hue. For absolute black on colored support, plan 2 layers of application.\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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7220; font-size: 15px; margin-top: 16px;\"\u003eDoes the pigment stain utensils?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe pigment is very covering and permanently stains light brushes, porous plastic dishes, and silicone utensils. Prefer ceramic or glass dishes (which can be cleaned in the dishwasher) and dark brushes dedicated to this color.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7220; font-size: 15px; margin-top: 16px;\"\u003eIs it suitable for frozen entremets?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eCan be applied once the entremet is thawed on the surface, on crystallized mirror glaze or fondant. Do not apply on raw frozen surface, as condensation during thawing would dilute the paint and cause it to run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \n    \u003ch3 style=\"color: #9a7220; font-size: 15px; margin-top: 16px;\"\u003eDifference between Black Magic and Pro Powder Deep Purple?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eBlack Magic is a true black with a deep finish. Deep Purple is a very dark purple that may look black in small amounts but reveals purple highlights under light. For an absolute black finish without colored reflections, choose Black Magic. For theatrical effects or deep violet shades, choose Deep Purple.\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 for the CAP kit. The powder is accepted by exam juries. Only caution: do not place it near other light-colored preparations on the work surface (risk of color contamination).\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 for coloring shells, to be incorporated into the meringue before macaronage, starting with a very small amount then adjusting progressively. Be careful not to over-hydrate the meringue, which would loosen the consistency. For surface decoration of baked shells, application with a fine brush in diluted paint is ideal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/details\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 class=\"pl-h2\"\u003eTo go further\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"pl-arsenal\"\u003e\n  \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/cake-design\"\u003eCake Design universe\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/pates-a-sucre\"\u003eFondant\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/celebrations\"\u003eCelebrations and events\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/themes\"\u003eDecorative themes\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/lissages\"\u003eSpatulas and finishing tools\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/love\"\u003eWeddings and love\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/eid-mubarak\"\u003eEid Mubarak\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/nouveautes\"\u003eNew at Patissland\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"pl-tip\"\u003e\nPatissland, partner of demanding pastry chefs.\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"RAINBOW DUST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":23836799762532,"sku":"PP-BLMA-FG","price":2.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0108\/6167\/4596\/files\/PP-BLMA-FG_A.jpg-2.webp?v=1778081539","url":"https:\/\/patistopsland.com\/en\/products\/colorant-en-poudre-noir","provider":"Patissland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
