fun size for so many different colors cakes to work with ... great for travel ...the colors are nice and bright , I do find that the need a little longer than another brand in softening the pigments , just add your waters to the cakes you are going to use before you start setting up your workspace , but when they get to the softer texture the color just pop on your page ... I will keep these in my traveling supplies bag ... this little circle of cakes a water brush and paper/etc and you're ready to paint the world
