ProGel Concentrated Colour - Navy Blue

How Do You Make Navy Blue Icing Without It Turning Pale?

Rainbow Dust Navy Blue ProGel Concentrated Colour is designed for decorators who need a deeper blue shade than standard sky blue or baby blue. Navy is a classic cake decorating colour, but it can be difficult to achieve with weak liquid colours, especially when working with white buttercream, fondant icing or sugarpaste.

Because ProGel is highly concentrated, you can build the colour slowly without adding too much moisture to your mixture. Start with a small amount, mix thoroughly, then allow the colour to develop before deciding whether to add more. This is especially helpful when aiming for a rich navy finish rather than a flat mid-blue.

What Cake Designs Suit Navy Blue ProGel?

Navy Blue is a smart choice for cakes that need a polished, grown-up finish. It works beautifully for nautical cakes, night sky design and dramatic wedding cakes. It can also be used to create deep blue decorative accents and stunning contrasting detail.

For a luxury look, pair Navy Blue with white sugarpaste, lustre dust and sprinkles. For a softer palette, use it alongside Baby Blue, Ivory or pale grey tones. Navy can also help add depth to blue blends, ombré effects and hand-modelled decorations.

Can Navy Blue ProGel Be Used in Buttercream and Fondant?

Yes. Navy Blue ProGel can be used in a variety of different edible mediums. It is incredibly versatile. For sugarpaste or modelling paste, knead until the colour is smooth and even. For buttercream or frosting, beat well and let the shade settle before making final adjustments.

The easy-control tube makes it simple to add colour neatly, whether you are tinting a full batch or adding small decorative details.
