Expert Review and Insights
Pavoni has truly raised the bar with this range. The pigment is incredibly intense, meaning a tiny bit goes a very long way, which is fantastic for managing costs.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Lavender Bakehouse in Cheltenham was struggling to find a green food colouring that was both vibrant and consistent for their popular pistachio and lime macarons. Their previous brand would often leave specks or produce a different shade from batch to batch, leading to waste.
"The difference was immediate. The Pavoni powder dissolves perfectly, and the colour is just so rich and true. Our macarons have never looked better, and customers have noticed the quality. It's a fantastic, reliable product."
Robert Davies – Head Baker
Achieved 100% colour consistency across all batches, reducing ingredient wastage by over 10%.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Getting the Best Colour
- Always start with a tiny amount on the tip of a clean knife; you can always add more.
- For the most even distribution, mix the powder with a few drops of liquid (like water or egg white) from your recipe to create a paste first.
- Add this colour paste to your main mixture rather than adding the powder directly.
- Remember that colours can deepen slightly as they dry or bake, so aim for a shade just lighter than your target.
Keeping It Fresh
- Keep the container tightly sealed after every single use to protect it from air and moisture.
- Store in a cool, dry, and dark place like a pantry or cupboard.
- Avoid storing it near sources of heat or steam, such as an oven or kettle.
- Always use a clean, dry utensil to take powder from the pot to prevent contamination.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this food colouring suitable for vegetarians and vegans?
A: Yes, this powder-based colour contains no animal-derived ingredients and is suitable for both vegetarian and vegan diets.
Q: How much of the powder should I actually use?
A: It's extremely concentrated. We recommend starting with a tiny amount on the tip of a knife and gradually adding more until you reach your desired shade.
Q: Will this colour fade when I bake with it?
A: Pavoni colours are designed for excellent heat stability. However, all food colours can alter slightly with high heat, so we suggest a small test batch first.
Q: Can I use this to colour solid chocolate?
A: No, this is a water-soluble powder. For colouring pure chocolate, you will need an oil-based or specific chocolate-friendly colouring.
Q: What does 'E171-free' actually mean?
A: It simply means the product does not contain Titanium Dioxide, a whitening agent that many professional kitchens and consumers are now choosing to avoid.
Q: How do I get a completely even colour in my icing?
A: The best trick is to make a smooth paste with a few drops of water before adding the colour to your main bowl of icing. This prevents any speckles.
Q: Is this the same as a liquid food colouring from the supermarket?
A: Not at all. This is a dry, professional powder. It's far more concentrated and won't add unwanted moisture, which is critical for delicate recipes.
Q: What is the best way to store this commercial green food colouring for cakes?
A: Always keep the pot tightly sealed and store it in a cool, dark, and dry place away from any moisture or direct sunlight.
The Pavoni Professional Difference: Consistency is Key
When your business's reputation is built on the visual appeal of your creations, 'good enough' simply doesn't cut it. That's the space where Pavoni excels. This isn't just another ingredient; it's a guarantee of consistency. Developed with world-class pâtissier Emmanuele Forcone, every pot of this commercial green food colouring is engineered for repeatable perfection. This means the vibrant pistachio green of your macarons today will be identical to the batch you make next month, building customer trust and brand recognition. For a professional kitchen, this reliability translates directly into reduced waste from failed batches, predictable results, and the freedom to focus on creativity, knowing your core components are flawless. It’s a smart investment in your craft and your brand's reputation for quality.

Ever had a food colour that just won't mix in properly, leaving you with annoying little specks? That's often because the colour isn't suited to your mix. This 'water-soluble' powder is designed specifically for water-based recipes like royal icing, buttercream, macaron batter, and sugar paste. Think of it like dissolving sugar in your tea – it disappears completely, spreading the colour evenly throughout the liquid. This means you get a smooth, consistent finish every single time, without any unexpected polka dots ruining your perfect bake.
