Rainbow Dust - ProGel
25 g Gel Food Coloring - Gray - ProGel
Gray gel food coloring, concentrated 25 g tube
ProGel Gray evokes smooth slate and a gray stormy sky. This concentrated 25 g gel food coloring is designed for professional pastry chefs and demanding cake design enthusiasts. Particularly sought after for contemporary minimalist wedding cakes and urban and architectural-themed birthday layer cakes, it delivers a stable, intense shade with just a few toothpick tips.
ProGel's signature advantage: it is a universal water- and oil-based coloring, working equally well with water-based preparations (royal icing, water-based glazes, syrups, meringues, macarons) and fat-based preparations (buttercream, ganache, tempered chocolate, pastry fondant, sugar paste). One tube is enough for the entire range of pastry applications, whereas other colorings require two separate ranges depending on the base used. The concentrated 25 g format covers 30 to 50 preparations depending on the desired intensity.

ProGel Gray Dosage Guide
The shade can be adjusted according to the dosage without losing its character. The gel is measured by the toothpick tip for precise control. This shade belongs to the Rainbow Dust ProGel range, which includes 38 shades in total.
| Light dosage | 1 toothpick tip / 250 g |
| Standard dosage | 2 to 3 tips / 250 g |
| Intense dosage | 5 to 8 tips / 250 g |
Uses
- Contemporary minimalist wedding cakes
- Urban and architectural-themed birthday layer cakes
- Industrial- or loft-themed royal icing cookies
- Modern chic concrete-themed drip cakes
Please note: Gray is a niche color, used for ultra-modern minimalist wedding cakes and corporate event orders. Avoid it for children's birthdays (too understated). Combined with luster gold and white, it creates the trendy 'chic polished concrete' effect found in contemporary design pastry boutiques.
