Description
Description
Fondust is a fantastic coloring product for pastry chefs; it is the only water-soluble color that can be used directly in food; easy to use, Fondust is a microencapsulated food coloring especially designed for coloring food with very low water content; it can be used to color fondant, sugar work (before or after baking), almond paste, royal icing, buttercream, cake mix, macaroons, decorating gel, candy -- practically everything . . . except pure chocolate. Advantages: highly concentrated color, matte finish, immediate coloring, does not change food consistency, UV-resistant color, free of nuts, lactose, gluten; vegan, vegetarian, 100-percent edible; UV-resistant color: Fondust offers greater fade resistance compared with coloring gels or pastes; with Fondust, colors keep their intensity much longer than with other food colors; color fading is caused by UV rays hitting the color; all colors eventually fade; most gel and paste formulas consist of an acidic solution whose pH is below 5, but Fondust is free of acid and free of preservatives; when food colors are exposed to an acid whose pH is below 5, some colors become unstable and fade faster when in contact with UV rays; if you experience increased fading with Fondust, check for acids in the ingredients of the food you are coloring. Fondust is easy to use: Simply knead up to 3 grams into 1 kilogram of fondant to achieve maximum color intensity; food products containing titanium dioxide (white pigment) will probably require more Fondust to reach maximum color intensity; with Fondust you will achieve bright or very dark color (depending on which color you're using) in three fast and easy steps: open the jar over a paper towel and dip the fondant into the jar; if you have a lot of fondant, set it in a bowl and add the desired amount of Fondust [maximum 3 grams per 0.9 kilograms (0.1 ounce per 2 pounds)]; knead gently for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the powder is well incorporated into the fondant; now you are ready.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: What is Fondust Powder Food Color and how is it used? A: Fondust Powder Food Color is a highly concentrated, water-soluble coloring product designed for pastry chefs. It can be directly used in food items, especially those with low water content. To use, simply knead up to 3 grams of Fondust into 1 kilogram of fondant or other food products like buttercream and royal icing to achieve vibrant colors.
- Q: Is Fondust Powder Food Color safe for all dietary needs? A: Yes, Fondust Powder Food Color is 100% edible and meets health safety standards set by Health Canada and the European Commission. It is free from nuts, lactose, and gluten, making it suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
- Q: Can Fondust be used to color chocolate? A: No, Fondust Powder Food Color is not suitable for pure chocolate as it is specifically designed for food products with very low water content. It works well on fondant, sugar work, and other baking mediums but does not mix effectively with chocolate.
- Q: How does Fondust compare to other food colorings in terms of color vibrancy? A: Fondust offers greater color intensity and fade resistance compared to traditional coloring gels and pastes. Its unique formulation allows colors to maintain their vibrancy longer, even when exposed to UV light, unlike other products that may fade more quickly.
- Q: What should I do if I notice fading with Fondust colors? A: If you experience fading with Fondust colors, check the ingredients of the food you are coloring for any acids with a pH below 5. These acids can cause instability in some colors. Fondust is free from acid and preservatives, which helps maintain color integrity.
