Oil-based coloring for chocolate, ganaches, and fat-based preparations.
Colour Mill Lime is a concentrated, fat-soluble food coloring in a 20 ml dropper bottle. Its oil-based formula blends directly into chocolate, cocoa butter, ganaches, and rich creams without causing the mixture to seize. The Lime shade gives a bright, tangy lime green, as vivid as freshly grated lime zest.
