Colour Mill Mint Water-Soluble Food Coloring
Mint shade, 20 ml bottle for water-based mixtures

Your questions, our advice
Can this food coloring be used in melted chocolate?
No: this is a water-based, water-soluble food coloring. In chocolate or ganache, the water causes the fat to seize. For these mixtures, use the Colour Mill oil-soluble range.
Should I adjust the amount according to the quantity of mixture?
Yes, the recommended amount is for 250 g of mixture: proportionally double or triple the number of drops for larger quantities.
How should I store the 20 ml bottle after opening?
Close tightly after each use, store away from light at 15 to 22 °C, and use within 12 months to preserve pigment intensity.
