Decent but you need a lotTook a whole tube for a small batch of icing as otherwise it’s grey. For a whole cake you’d need multiple tubes.

Worked really wellI wanted to make royal icing in a colour that matched the purple of a particular ladies football team and this was perfect - I had no issues with it at all and the match was perfect. Plus they won!

Slightly disappointedI just this last week and was disappointed that it took a lot of the gel to get any colour, others I have used did not need much. That said, it may have been in part due to the Sweetener Icing sugar I was using

Pigment is amazing!I bought this a few days ago and the pigment is crazy especially because it’s a gel food colour. I usually use powder food colouring, but this is wow. I made amazing yellow buttercream with this and it could’ve have came out better.
