Bake Up a Summer of Colour with Rainbow Dust!

• Lynsey Macdonald

If there is ever a time of year for including a kaleidoscope of colours in your baking, it’s summer! Using the iconic Rainbow Dust Pro Gels, we’re creating summertime masterpieces, and celebrating with 5 for £12 across the whole range!

All summer we'll be revealing new colour palettes inspired by your favourite activities, holidays and events, adding them to our list of themes below. Keep your eyes peeled!

Tropical Paradise

Dreaming of summer days lounging on a tropical beach somewhere? Nothing says summer quite like the thought of days spent sipping cocktails and topping up sun cream, surrounded by palm trees!

Bake a batch of cupcakes, or a larger cake, and take some time colouring various shades of buttercream. With colours these intense, you don't need to do anything more than pipe on a swirl! We added some cute sprinkles and tropical toppers, but the buttercream really does the heavy lifting here...

The Rainbow Dust ProGels in vibrant Aqua, Yellow, Pink, Bright Green and Orange shades pack a (tropical) punch.

Summer Garden

From bold blooms to the smell of freshly cut grass, there's just something magical about time spent in a summer garden! This gorgeous bake (by our resident baking queen, Holly!) just makes us feel like we're lying in the shade of a tree, reading a book and letting the hours slip by.

Here, a combination of Rainbow Dust's ProGels in Brown, Pink, Lilac, Lemon and Gooseberry worked together to help create this perfect cake! Remember that a little goes a long way with these concentrated gels - just a tiny amount of Gooseberry creates this stunning garden green, and a dash of pink for those tiny toadstools!
