Achieve a deep, intense black finish with Vegetable Carbon Black Food Colouring E153. Ideal for colouring fondant, modelling paste and decorative creams, and for painting fine details on smooth surfaces.
When you need a truly rich, jet-black shade that won’t look grey or washed out, Vegetable Carbon Black Food Colouring E153 helps you create bold, high-contrast cake designs with confidence. This concentrated black powder is perfect for colouring fondant (sugarpaste), modelling paste and other decorating masses, and it also works beautifully for drawing and painting on smooth, finished surfaces. You can even tint decorating creams to bring dramatic depth to borders, swirls and piped details.
How to use for fondant/modelling paste: lightly dilute the powder with a few drops of water before kneading it into the paste. For extra firmness and elasticity, you can add Tylo (CMC) powder. Once coloured, let the paste rest tightly wrapped in food-safe cling film so no air can reach it—this improves workability and helps the colour settle evenly.
How to use for painting: mix the colour with a small amount of alcohol to create a paint. Use a brush to apply lines and details, then allow to dry for a few hours.
Vegetable Carbon Black Food Colouring E153 is a great choice for elegant modern cakes, sharp outlines, highlighting motifs, and creating detailed decorations such as little cars, clothing for 3D figures, and other show-stopping accents. If you’re aiming for a professional finish that photographs beautifully, this intense black is the secret weapon your decorating kit has been missing.
