Colour Mill Mauve Oil-Based Food Coloring 100 ml
Mauve shade, 100 ml Pro size for fat-based mixtures
Colour Mill Mauve evokes the faded mauve of an old garden and dusty violet pink. This concentrated oil-based food coloring is designed for fat-based baking mixtures: melted white chocolate, ganache, buttercream, and fondant. The 100 ml bottle is aimed at workshops with regular production: for the same volume, it costs around 35% less per ml than the 20 ml bottle. It is a popular choice among cake designers making romantic vintage-themed wedding cakes in batches, and anniversary layer cakes (40 years).

Directions for use

- Shake the bottle before use and mix into a base at 25 to 30°C

- Do not use in a water-based mixture (royal icing, syrup): the Colour Mill water-based range is intended for this purpose
Ingredients and allergens
Ingredients: Humectant: E422, vegetable oil (rapeseed), colors: E122, E132, emulsifiers: E322, E433.
Please note: The 100 ml size becomes worthwhile when making several colored batches per week; for occasional use or testing a shade, the 20 ml bottle is a better fit.
