We get this question a lot, and we mean a lot... so much so we created a whole page dedicated to the exact question (click here)! We understand the world of "edible glitter" and "edible dusts" can be incredibly confusing, and even frustrating!

This is one of those instances where looks can be deceiving. Each and every jar of our dust and/or glitter is filled by weight as opposed to volume. Whereas our product is manufactured using various amounts of edible pigments, the lighter colors such as white and clear are packed tighter than some of the deeper colors such as Gold and Silver so while it may appear to the human eye that certain jars contain less product, in reality, the weight is exactly the same in every jar. Simply put. some powders are more fluffy than others but rest assured, you're still getting the same amount of product.
