Review: So Good! - The only food dye brand I’ll be buying from now on! This stuff is amazing and gives rich, deep colors that generic food dye just doesn’t achieve. I used the forest green color and it didn’t leave any weird taste at all, which I really appreciated. The Christmas red color did have a slight taste, but that’s pretty standard with red food coloring in general. Overall, the quality and color payoff are excellent, and I’m very happy with this purchase.
Review: Finally, a true deep black without turning icing bitter or gray - This Coal Black Liqua-Gel is my go-to for achieving rich, jet-black frosting and fondant. The color develops quickly without needing huge amounts, which means no strange taste in the finished product. It also blends smoothly without streaks, making it ideal for buttercream, royal icing, or even macaron batter. A must-have for Halloween treats, elegant cakes, or whenever you need dramatic color. Pros: • Produces deep black color without excessive product • No bitter aftertaste • Smooth blending with no streaks • Works in multiple mediums (icing, fondant, batter) Cons: • Can stain hands and counters if not careful • Color may deepen over time, so plan ahead for shade

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Switching to Chefmaster!!
*by E***N on December 27, 2025*

I’ve been using food coloring gels for over 25 years and I guarantee this is the best I’ve had. I used the red and brown for Christmas and to get a wonderful deep color of each I only had to add a couple of drops. I was pleasantly shocked!! With other brands, it has always been 10 or more. That of course depends on the brand, but Chefmaster has been the best, at least for the brown and red and there isn’t any bitter taste.
