Why We Like This Product (YPC Team Review)
At the Yorkshire Outdoor Activity Park, our café team had great fun testing PME’s Edible Blood on vanilla cupcakes and chocolate fudge cakes. The results were amazing—the gel created the perfect drips down the sides, and the deep red colour looked incredibly realistic under the lights. We liked how easy it was to control thanks to the nozzle tip, and the flavour was pleasantly sweet, not artificial. A total winner for Halloween bakers who love to make their creations stand out!
