These Pudding V2 keycaps are specifically designed to replace the standard keycaps on your mechanical keyboard, focusing on improving the visual impact of its backlighting system. Available in a classic white and black colourway, their defining feature is the translucent upper portion that allows more light from your keyboard's LEDs to pass through, creating a distinctive 'pudding' effect that is brighter and more evenly diffused than with solid keycaps. They connect via your keyboard's existing wired (USB, PS/2, TYPE-C) or Bluetooth interface and are compatible with a wide range of popular layouts, offering a straightforward upgrade to customise your typing experience.
This keycap set is built with a focus on durability and light transmission, using specific manufacturing techniques and materials.
These keycaps serve a clear functional and aesthetic purpose, suitable for various user environments.
The value of this product lies in its specific construction and the practical benefits it delivers based on its material properties.

Pudding V2 Double Shot PBT Keycaps for Enhanced Mechanical Keyboard Backlighting
Features and Construction
Material and Build
The keycaps are constructed using a double-shot moulding process with PBT plastic. In double-shot moulding, two different plastics are injected to form a single keycap—the opaque base and the translucent legend/top section are fused together. This means the legends cannot wear off over time. The use of PBT plastic, as opposed to more common ABS, provides a more textured feel and greater resistance to the shiny, greasy appearance that develops on keycaps with heavy use.Size and Practical Fit
These keycaps feature an OEM profile, which is the standard height and shape used by many mainstream keyboard manufacturers. This profile ensures compatibility with the vast majority of mechanical keyboards that use Cherry MX-style switches (and clones), allowing for a familiar typing feel. The set is offered in numerous specific layout configurations (coded G1 through G13) to ensure you purchase a kit that correctly fits your keyboard, whether it's a compact Poker, a tenkeyless (TKL), a full-size 108-key model, or niche layouts like the XD64 or XD68.Uses and Placement
Event or Professional Use
For streamers, gamers, or professionals who work in dimly lit environments, the enhanced backlighting of these keycaps improves key legibility, which can aid performance and reduce eye strain. The clean white and black design maintains a professional look suitable for an office or studio setting, while the improved light output makes the keyboard a more visually striking centrepiece during live streams or presentations.Everyday Home Use
For daily typing, coding, or gaming at home, these keycaps offer a practical upgrade. The PBT material provides a more satisfying tactile texture than smooth, worn ABS keycaps, and the double-shot construction ensures the legends remain clear for years. The brighter backlighting is also beneficial for casual use in living rooms or bedrooms with ambient lighting, making it easier to locate keys without turning on a harsh overhead light.Benefits and Buying Value
Reuse and Low Maintenance
Due to the durable PBT plastic and double-shot legends, these keycaps are designed for long-term use with minimal maintenance. They are less prone to developing a shiny patina and their legends will not fade, meaning they can be transferred to a new keyboard in the future if you upgrade your base unit. Their simple wipe-clean surface makes upkeep straightforward.Why Choose This Product
You should consider these Pudding V2 keycaps if you want to noticeably enhance your keyboard's backlighting without modifying the electronics. They offer a direct, compatible replacement that leverages durable PBT material and a proven double-shot manufacturing method. The availability of precise layout kits removes the guesswork from compatibility, ensuring you get a full set that fits your specific keyboard model correctly.
