Your questions, our advice
Can this food coloring be used in melted chocolate?
No: this food coloring is water-soluble and water-based. In chocolate or ganache, the water causes the fat to seize. For these mixtures, use the oil-soluble Colour Mill range.
Should I adjust the dosage according to the amount of mixture?
Yes, the stated dosage is for 250 g of mixture: double or triple the number of drops proportionally 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 the intensity of the pigments.
