Frequently asked questions
Is True Blue food coloring oil-soluble, like the kind used for chocolate?
No. It’s a water-soluble liquid food coloring (water- and glycerin-based): it’s suitable for buttercream, icing, fondant, and ganache, but doesn’t mix with couverture chocolate or pure fat. To color chocolate, use an oil-soluble powder food coloring.
What is the maximum recommended dose for True Blue?
The maximum recommended usage rate is 16.2 g/kg. Adjust gradually using the dropper tip to control the color intensity.
Can True Blue be used for desserts intended for children?
Yes, its composition does not contain any colorant subject to the EU regulatory warning about children's activity and attention.
How do you apply True Blue food coloring without causing the mixture to set?
Add the food coloring drop by drop directly to the prepared mixture (buttercream, icing, fondant), mixing between each addition rather than pouring in the full dose at once.
