Velvet spray

Velvet spray, which some ranges call "Samt Spray", gives cakes, desserts and chocolate a matt, velvety finish like a professional entremets. We stock almost 30 cans in colours from white and pink to black, gold and lilac.

Which velvet sprays do we offer?

The range is split by can size. Velvet Spray (150 ml) comes in white, red, green, pink, black, light blue, light brown and dark brown. The larger Samt Spray cans (250 ml) come in white, cream white, yellow, orange, pink, red, cherry red, lilac, green, brown, light brown, gold and black. Decora Velvetspray (100 g) is available in brown, red, yellow, orange, green and pink, and FunCakes offers a sky blue (100 ml).

Using velvet spray well

• Shake the can thoroughly before use and follow the instructions on it.
• Work on well-chilled, ideally frozen desserts or on hard chocolate. The velvet effect then sticks evenly.
• Spray from a distance in thin layers. Two light passes beat one heavy one.
• Cover the work surface and surroundings generously, as the fine mist travels far.
