Forest Green Liqua-Gel Food Coloring
Forest Green Liqua-Gel Food Coloring
Chefmaster Forest Green Liqua-Gel is a concentrated gel food coloring that gives icings, fondant, batters, and fillings a deep, natural-looking green in the pine and evergreen range. A few drops squeezed from the bottle carry enough pigment to color a full batch of buttercream, and because the gel is built on a small amount of liquid it adds color without thinning the icing or changing how it tastes. Baker's Authority stocks the 10.5 oz bottle and offers it in bulk and wholesale quantities for bakeries, cake decorators, and confectioners.
What It Is
This is a water-based soft gel food color packed in a 10.5 oz squeeze bottle with a color-coded cap, the size Chefmaster makes for commercial decorating benches. Liqua-Gel sits between a liquid color and a paste: it flows and measures like a liquid, but it carries the pigment load of a paste, so it mixes in quickly and evenly without streaking. Forest Green is the dark, blue-leaning green in the line, the shade for pine boughs, holly, foliage, and any design that calls for a rich green rather than a bright one.
Color and Performance
Forest Green produces a deep green-cyan tone in the pine green family. The color develops fully as it sits, holds without fading over time, and resists bleeding into neighboring colors on a finished cake, which matters on multi-color piped work and on royal icing details. Chefmaster formulates Liqua-Gel for whipped toppings and buttercream icings, where it disperses without breaking down the emulsion, and the gel is freeze tolerant so decorated cakes can go into the freezer without the color shifting. Lighter pastel greens come from cutting it with Chefmaster's whitener, and warmer or brighter greens from blending it with yellow or leaf green.
Culinary Uses
A concentrated green gel color has a place across the decorating and baking bench:
- Buttercream, whipped icing, and cream cheese frosting
- Royal icing for piped and flooded cookies
- Fondant, gum paste, and modeling paste for leaves, vines, and figures
- Cake batter, cupcakes, and cake pops
- Macarons, meringues, and marshmallow
- Glazes, fillings, and beverages
It is a natural fit for Christmas and St. Patrick's Day production, botanical and woodland cake themes, camouflage and sports-team colors, and any order where a deep green has to look the same on Monday's cake as it did on Friday's.
Usage
Add the gel a drop or two at a time and mix fully before adding more, since the color continues to deepen for a while after mixing. Liqua-Gel is water-based and should not be added directly to chocolate or candy coating, which will seize; for chocolate work, blend it with Chefmaster Candy-Flo first or use an oil-based candy color.
Dietary Information
Chefmaster Liqua-Gel is kosher certified, halal, gluten-free, and made without animal-derived ingredients, so it is suitable for vegan and vegetarian products. It is made in the USA.
Storage and Handling
Store at room temperature with the cap closed tightly, away from direct sunlight. Wipe the tip after use so the cap does not stick, and shake before use if the bottle has been sitting.
Bulk and Wholesale Options
Sold by the 10.5 oz bottle. Bulk and wholesale quantities are available for high-volume production, and the 10.5 oz size covers a busy decorating bench far longer than the small retail bottles.
Brand
Chefmaster has made food colors for professional decorators for more than 50 years. Its Liqua-Gel line covers a wide spectrum of shades in matching squeeze bottles, along with whiteners, airbrush colors, and Candy-Flo for chocolate, so a shop can build its whole color program around one system.
