Fat-Soluble Food Coloring - Colour Mill Emerald

Fat-soluble food coloring shade Emerald, available in 20 ml and 100 ml

Colour Mill Emerald evokes Colombian emerald, rainforest moss. This fat-soluble food coloring is designed for fat-based pastry bases: melted white chocolate, butter ganache, buttercream, royal icing, and fondant worked with the warmth of hands. Especially sought after by cake designers for chic and eventful end-of-year wedding cakes and wedding anniversary layer cakes (55 years, emerald anniversary), it offers a distinctive shade recognizable from the Colour Mill palette (Australia).

Made in Australia using proprietary pigment encapsulation technology, Colour Mill withstands baking up to 180°C without fading or lightening. The Emerald shade remains stable after baking, making it the reference option for colored cake batters before oven use. The 20 ml flexible dropper bottle allows precise dosing for occasional use; the 100 ml size is intended for boutique bakeries with regular production (per milliliter, the 100 ml is about 35% cheaper).

Emerald: 3 shades depending on dosage

The shade subtly adjusts according to dosage without losing its identity.

Patissland Tip - Emerald

Emerald is deeper and more precious than Green or Forest; it is the jeweler's green par excellence. Combine with Gold lustre for a jewel effect (very popular at Anglo-Saxon weddings). Ideal for emerald wedding anniversaries (55 years of marriage) and chic adult end-of-year wedding cakes.
