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 different from other food colorings? A: Fondust Powder Food Color is a microencapsulated, water-soluble color specifically designed for pastry chefs. Unlike traditional gel or paste colors, Fondust is free from acids and preservatives, making it more stable and UV-resistant, which means it retains color intensity longer in food items.
- Q: How do I use Fondust Powder Food Color in my baking? A: To use Fondust, simply knead up to 3 grams into 1 kilogram of fondant or other low-water content foods. For best results, open the jar over a paper towel, dip the fondant, or mix it in a bowl for even distribution. Knead gently for 2 to 3 minutes until well incorporated.
- Q: Is Fondust Powder Food Color safe for all diets? A: Yes, Fondust is 100% edible, vegan, vegetarian, and free from nuts, lactose, and gluten. It meets health standards set by Health Canada and the European Commission, ensuring its safety for various dietary needs.
- Q: Can Fondust Powder Food Color be used for coloring chocolate? A: No, Fondust is not suitable for coloring pure chocolate. It is designed for foods with very low water content, such as fondant, buttercream, and sugar work, but should not be used directly in chocolate.
- Q: How does Fondust compare to traditional gel colors in terms of color fading? A: Fondust offers greater fade resistance compared to traditional gel colors. Its UV-resistant formula helps maintain color intensity longer, as it is free from acidic solutions that can destabilize colors when exposed to UV rays.
