Top Tips
1
If you are unsure of how deep you want to make the blue shades, start with a small amount of ProGel, and you can always add more to build up the shades, bearing in mind the colours will deepen slightly over time.
2
Why not try this recipe using a different ProGel colour- there are over 30 to choose from! This recipe works best with darker ProGel colours because you can get a better spectrum of shades.

Instructions
Decorating your cupcakes:
Step 1
Open the Plain Icing pots and mix with a spoon until smooth.
Step 2
Create nine different strengths of blue by squeezing varying amounts of ProGel into each bowl, stirring well until combined. NB-Make sure you don’t exceed the maximum dosage of Sapphire Blue ProGel- see back of pack.
Step 3
Snip the end of one of the piping bags and insert the nozzle. We have used the Wilton 1M nozzle.

Spoon one of the icings into the bag, and pipe the icing onto the cupcake.
Step 5
Repeat step 4 for each colour until every cupcake is covered.
