There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I was concerned and called the company because there is no seal on the individual bottles of color and wanted to confirm this was in fact how they came.
I think it’s also super important that you shake the heck out of these before you use it because I had some pretty severe separation. It all came together with about 2 mins of shaking for each color.
Over all I’m very happy and will definitely be buying this again when I run out!

Cons - Small bottles. Products coagulate, but do remix. Doesn't give an intense color, more pastel. Need to use quite a bit.
Let me reiterate. I made a three-tiered wedding cake with ONE package of this product and got a mid-toned purple. It will not give you the vivid colors of fondant or synthetic coloring but it does work well. Also, when adding blue, ANY color in the frosting that leans yellow (butter cream?) will make the blue color muddy and greyed out.
I've used these a few times and I don't understand why all the bad reviews, unless the product varies drastically from batch to batch.
The downside, and what I later found out by coming back to read the reviews, was that the dyes have a very short shelf life. Like a few short months. The dyes start separating (our red and yellow was already on the verge when we got it, turns out) and you won't get the same vibrancy.
Now, here's the saddest part. My daughter wanted a carrot cake for her birthday. So I thought, yeah, I can use white chocolate to make the carrot decorations. Got the white chocolate melted, got a decent but very pale green, added a bit more...and seized the chocolate. I went ahead and tried for orange (using the red and yellow of course) and was even more let down by how fast that seized. I managed to eke out a few passable carrots and used the green to write her name and age.
This product is for you if you are so tired of Whole Foods not sharing all their food dyes with you. I mean, why don't they carry dyes?? Why? Anyway, this does the job you'll need it for as long as you need it done quickly. For people like me who have children who can't comprehend why they can't have carrot decorations on their carrot cake, the price tag isn't a hindrance.

Maybe this works better with buttercream, but for Royal Icing, it was a disappointment. I blew out 3 bags with couplers and tips trying to pipe the Icing. I'd rather skin a cat than use this product again.

With image i thought the size of product larger but it is very small.
It can be used to color cream only and cannot be used to color the cake.. Incase u want to make layers of cake with different color.
They are natural colors and hence would prefer this always for creams and icing.
