On my swatches it writes noticeably pinker and brighter than that: a raspberry-magenta in the dip-pen bar and handwriting. The deeper maroon only appears where the ink pools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShading:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate. You can see it in the swab bar, from a lighter raspberry to a darker berry. It’s gentle in fine writing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSheen:\u003c\/strong\u003e Green sheen on the pooled edges of the swabs and along the edges of the swab bar.

It’s strong in the swabs and visible in the swab bar, and lighter in the writing sample. The shimmer settles, so give the vial a gentle roll before filling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlow:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe interesting bit:\u003c\/strong\u003e The ink is Pumpkin’s signature bake. Pumpkin is Ferris Wheel Press’s baker character, and the box art shows his messy worktop with spilled flour, cracked eggs, whisks, rolling pins and his trusty cookbook. The bilingual label gives the French name as Croustade aux Groseilles. Groseilles are redcurrants, so the French name is more specific about the fruit than the English one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis is a hand-decanted 4ml sample vial from my own bottle.\u003cbr\u003ePhotos are my own swatches on Tomoe River Paper.\u003cbr\u003eI’m a collector and I’m always happy to talk ink, so please message me if you have any questions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ferris Wheel Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57573831409990,"sku":null,"price":2.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1020\/9696\/1862\/files\/FerrisWheelPressCurrantCrumblePie3.jpg?v=1791734664","url":"https:\/\/thepensmuggler.co.uk\/products\/ferris-wheel-press-everyday-collection-currant-crumble-pie-4ml-fountain-pen-ink-sample","provider":"The Pen Smuggler","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
