Colour Mill Mauve Oil-Soluble Food Colouring 100 ml
Mauve shade, 100 ml Pro format for fat-based products
Colour Mill Mauve evokes the faded mauve of an old-fashioned garden and dusty violet pink. This concentrated oil-soluble food colouring is designed for fat-based baking products: melted white chocolate, ganache, buttercream and fondant. The 100 ml bottle is intended for regular production: at the same volume, it costs around 35% less per ml than the 20 ml bottle. It is a popular choice among cake designers for series of romantic vintage-themed wedding cakes and wedding anniversary layer cakes (40 years).

Features
- Concentrated oil-soluble food colouring for fat-based products: white chocolate, ganache, buttercream and fondant
- Large 100 ml soft squeeze dropper bottle designed for regular production
- Heat-stable up to 180°C; the shade does not lighten in the oven
- Gluten-free, lactose-free, egg-free, peanut-free and soy-free; suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets
- Made in Australia using proprietary pigment encapsulation technology
Directions for use
- Same dosage as the 20 ml format: 2 to 4 drops per 250 g for a pastel shade, up to 20 drops for a dark shade
- Shake the bottle before use and incorporate into a base tempered to between 25 and 30°C
- For large quantities, measure proportionally to the weight of the preparation rather than by number of drops
- Do not use on a water-based product (royal icing, syrup): the Colour Mill water-soluble range is intended for this purpose
Please note: the 100 ml format becomes worthwhile once you are making several coloured preparations per week; for occasional use or testing a shade, the 20 ml bottle remains more suitable.
