### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Versatile and perfect for thickening powdered dyes for printing on cotton, rayon, or silk.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ So I ordered this because I wanted to make my own boba exploding boba
*by D***S on February 4, 2024*

So I ordered this because every recipe I watched on YouTube or red online. All said the same thing that this is a must have to make them so I ordered this. It came the next day literally like the damn. It was here and I ordered a couple other food chemicals you need. And I failed it and I can bow but I think I made one batch. Of my fault though, because I didn't have the squeezy dropper thing. Medicine droppers don't work good enough but this product I have used for other stuff and I must say I'm almost out. I really love this stuff, I'm a Baker. So this comes in real handy. Never heard of it till the boba recipe but yeah, if you're trying to make boba, this is great. It works for a lot of other things too so good product. Definitely would recommend it if you were a biker
