Jelife Natural Food Coloring Powder Set — 6 Colors, 3 g Glass Jars, Water-Dispersible, No Artificial Dyes

Jelife Natural Food Coloring Powder Set is a six-color, water-dispersible kit made from plant- and animal-derived pigments for vivid baking and decorating without synthetic dyes.

Whether you’re tinting batter, frosting, fondant, or beverages, this set delivers concentrated, powdered colors in reusable 3 g glass jars. The collection covers Yellow, Green, Orange (plant-derived and vegan-friendly) plus Red, Pink, Purple (which include cochineal/carmine). Each shade mixes easily with water or wet batters to produce reliable hues while avoiding FD&C artificial dyes.

How do I mix the powder for consistent colors?

Mixing powdered color gives you precise control and helps avoid streaks. For dry doughs or batters, blend the powder into dry ingredients first; for frostings and icings, sprinkle into the wet mixture and stir until fully incorporated.

• Start with 1/8–1/4 teaspoon per cup of batter and adjust for intensity.
• Dissolve in a few drops of warm water to create a liquid concentrate for smoother blends.
• For buttercream, add a small amount at a time until the desired shade appears.
• Test on a spoon or scrap cake layer—colors can deepen as they sit.

Are these colors safe for everyone to use?

The powders avoid synthetic FD&C dyes and preservatives, using recognizable natural ingredients such as turmeric, annatto, and gardenia extract. Note: red, pink, and purple include cochineal (carmine), which is derived from insects and may not be suitable for vegans or those with specific allergies.

• Non-GMO, no artificial preservatives, and FD&C dye-free.
• Vegan-friendly shades: Yellow, Green, Orange only.
• Red/Pink/Purple contain cochineal—check dietary preferences.
• Stored in reusable glass jars with shaker lids for hygiene and reuse.

What baking and craft uses work best with this set?

These concentrated powders are formulated for broad use across baking and DIY projects. They work well in batters, frostings, fondants, icings, cookies, macarons, and even beverages or homemade candies when you need natural pigments.

• Ideal for buttercream, royal icing, and fondant coloring.
• Use in doughs, batters, and pasta for uniform tinting.
• Great for natural-colored candies, gummies, and dyed eggs.
• Also suitable for kid-friendly crafts like playdough and slime (non-food uses separate from edible preparation).

How should I store and handle the powders to keep them vibrant?

Keep jars tightly closed and stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve pigment strength. Use dry utensils to avoid introducing moisture and clamp shaker lids after each use to prevent clumping and contamination.

• Store in a pantry or cabinet, out of heat and light.
• Avoid moisture—use a dry spoon or small scoop to dispense.
• Label jars if you transfer contents to other containers for organization.
• Re-sealable glass containers included for long-term freshness.

Who is this for? Bakers, pastry hobbyists, cake decorators, and home cooks who want bright, natural color without synthetic FD&C dyes will appreciate this kit. It’s also a practical choice for party planners and DIY crafters who need compact, concentrated pigments. Keep in mind vegetarians and vegans should avoid the cochineal-containing shades and use the plant-based colors instead.
