Frequently asked questions
How many drops should be used to achieve the Merlot shade?
For a rich Merlot shade, several drops are needed (use eight to ten drops per 100 g, or more depending on the desired opacity), especially with white chocolate. Add it gradually and allow the coloring to disperse before assessing the result.
Is this Merlot coloring compatible with fondant or royal icing?
As an oil-soluble coloring, Merlot is formulated for fat-based preparations: melted white, dark, or milk chocolate, cocoa butter, ganache, and buttercream. It is not designed for water-based preparations such as royal icing or fondant worked with water, in which it will not disperse properly: reserve it for fat-based mixtures, especially for autumn tiered cakes and elegant end-of-year finishes.
Is Merlot coloring heat-resistant?
As an oil-soluble coloring, Merlot is designed to be incorporated hot into melted chocolate or warm ganache without altering the setting or texture, making it suitable for autumn tiered cakes and elegant end-of-year finishes.
