Short changed
I was making a kilo of butter icing to decorate a large (monster, hence green!) birthday cake. I had bought two tubes and measured out the colouring very precisely so that if needed I could create more in the same proportions. Surprising then when my 15g of colouring only seemed to have 10g in it. I think Ocado should check this out as it is against weights and mesures. Also I had to resort to the second tube anyway as it wasn't as strong a colour as hoped. Would not buy again, although the colour itself was good.
not strong colour at all
So I was expecting great things of this food colour from the description. Did a test piece of fondant barely the size of s matchbox: had to put at least four good blobs of colour to get anywhere near the colour I wanted. The colouring is also a lot more liquid-like than the usual brand of colouring u use - so will make fondant very sticky if you want a deep vibrant colour. Might be ok to colour sponges I guess, but not fit for purpose otherwise.
Nice, bright colour
Strong, bright green. I only needed to use a small amount to get the right shade so it didn't affect the taste or texture of the icing.
Brilliant colour
The kids loved baking with this and loved the colour. Only trouble I find with colours like this is that they change the colour of my kids poo!
Kids love it
Great fun to make a cupcake, the kids loved the colour.
fun baking product
I mixed this with icing sugar and water to make green icing for biscuits. My kids loved it and loved the colour. Would be perfect for Halloween!
