Frequently asked questions
What is the difference compared with Sunset Yellow coloring?
Lemon Tart is a brighter, more lemon-toned yellow, while Sunset Yellow leans toward a warmer, richer yellow. Both work well together for fruity gradients.
Can it be used for macarons?
Yes, it can be mixed into the meringue in a small quantity before macaronage, or applied to the surface with a fine brush as diluted paint on the baked shells.
Does the pigment withstand baking?
Stability is better at low temperatures, such as for meringues. For biscuits baked at high temperatures, apply it in royal icing after baking.
