Orange Concrete Powder in Minecraft, drawn from the game's own block model. Gravity-affected block. Minecraft has used the name Orange Concrete Powder since 1.12.

Making Orange Concrete Powder takes 1 Orange Dye, 4 Sand, and 4 Gravel at a Crafting Table. Expect 8 Orange Concrete Powder from every craft.

Orange Concrete Powder Item ID and Give Command

The item ID for Orange Concrete Powder is minecraft:orange_concrete_powder. In commands the namespace may be left off, so orange_concrete_powder works too. Checked against Minecraft Java 26.2.

Give yourself one
/give @p orange_concrete_powder
Give a full stack of 64
/give @p orange_concrete_powder 64
Give it to a named player
/give Steve orange_concrete_powder 1

Cheats have to be on for Orange Concrete Powder to appear this way, and the same command works on Bedrock Edition, where the name is written the same.

Overview

Orange Concrete Powder turns into solid Orange Concrete when it contacts water. It is gravity-affected like sand. Orange Concrete Powder uses a shapeless recipe, so the ingredients can go in any cells of the grid as long as all of them are present.

Minecraft has used the name Orange Concrete Powder since 1.12, the oldest release whose language file lists it.

The materials come together from a few sources: you will be working with orange dye (craft from flowers or other materials), sand (dig from beaches), and gravel (dig gravel).

Counting The Stack

Feed 4 gravel a craft, so 64 covers 16 of them: 128 orange concrete powder. The recipe wants 64 sand beside it. Craft 16 empties the box exactly.
