The Silikomart sky blue fat-soluble dye is a food coloring designed to color chocolate, cocoa butter, and fatty preparations. Fat-soluble, it disperses in fats without altering the texture, unlike water-soluble dyes that cause chocolate to seize.
Concentrated in a 25 ml bottle, it provides a soft sky blue, ideal for winter and sea-themed decorations. A few drops are enough to tint a mass of chocolate or cocoa butter.
A fat-soluble dye is used only in fatty substances. Do not incorporate it into an aqueous preparation. To color chocolate, avoid any contact with water that would cause seizing.
Why use a fat-soluble dye for chocolate?
Chocolate is a fat. A fat-soluble dye disperses in it without causing seizing, unlike a water-based dye.
How much should be used?

Can it be used with an airbrush?

No. For aqueous preparations, use a water-soluble dye.
