How does this product compare to the orginal Fake Bake in the purple bottle?

The guide color is quite a bit darker than the original and the color it produces is a tad bit darker

I honestly can't see much of a difference, and I am a very fair-skinned redhead. It may develop slightly darker with the first application, but I'm going back to the original Fake Bake Flawless spray. There's just not enough of a difference to warrant spending a few extra dollars!

I have only used it a few times but it seems fine. it is faster and hotter than my old one the bake function work well.

This is not a yeast based product. It doesn't need kneading, rising, resting etc. It is much like Jiffy Mix that you mix quickly pour in skillet or baking pan and put in oven and bake for 20 minutes. Much faster than a bread machine preparation. I use my counter top oven to avoid heating up the kitchen, if that is your goal.

I'm glad I got this. I have tried to dry mine twice in the oven for a total of roughly 8 hours. Only a few beads turn yellow and the rest are more of a greenish purple. I can't recommend from what I have seen so far.

From what I can tell via the pix and descriptions, other than the packaging and the price, it appears that there is no difference. That said, having not seen the purple one in person, I can't truly say. Hope that vague answer helps in some way.

I've used both and see no difference. I have a jar of both and the ingredients are exactly the same.

Great question.. So far, I haven't had any issues with this product! It bakes clear, so you can't even tell where you "glued" it to the original item. If you were to use chalk pastels with it.. it makes great "glazes and sauces" .

dear Jan, as I see it, there is NO difference what so ever. This oven is wonderful! one tip, whether baking or using convection in oven, this puppy is a bit quick! My banana bread was too brown on top and still gooey in middle.. frozen pizza works amazing! cooks in3/4 the time... hope this helps....thanks, Tim

I agree with Nancy G. - I've had very good success with this product, with no burning on the bottom of food or difference in baking time.

It comes with a mix....but bears very little resemblance to real food. It's a little like PlayDoh. And the cookies are never baked, but simply left to air-dry. Like PlayDoh, doesn't ever real dry, cookies are never crisp and they taste horrible.

I'm not sure of the difference, we bought it for my sister-in-law for Christmas. We got the AirBake Ultra by T-fal, I guess she swears by the air-bake branding.

The blue one is made by someone other than Wilton so the quality may not be the same but it is basically the same thing. I have bought many silicone molds from "generic" manufacturers and they work fine for what I use them for. I do have the Wilton mini brownie mold so I can't tell you what the blue one is like for sure.

As far as I know, it isn't the same. But believe me, this product is great. I use it for some recipes when I used to grab the flour to thicken the juice. Now I use this and it instantly thickens (in hot or cold liquids) and has no added flavors. It is a good product and more than worth it.

There must be a difference in the quality of the ingredients because this one WORKS!

I actually use this product and love it. I do not know if there is a difference between this product and the one in the darker bottle. My guess is that one is just older packaging, but I do not know for sure.

I actually never used the Flawless before this first time I tried it so I don't know how much darker it is. However, I had always used the Fake Bake Mousse and then tried the Flawless and I actually prefer the Mousse. I think it gives me a more natural looking tan and works much better (in my opinion). I just never looked like I even had any on with the Flawless unless I practically put it on every day and then about the time it would get about the right color I would need to exfoliate and start over. I went back to the Mousse.

This stuff IS FAKE!I got in contact with a Fake Bake representative (mary@fakebake.com) and she stated, and I quote, "We do not sell to Amazon or support their website so your Amazon account would not be of any interest to us. We will not back any product sold on their website or E-Bay.Mary Customer Service"This clearly says to me that these products are fake! Beware! It says "by Fake Bake" but she refused to assist me with my issue because these are not their products.
