The Silikomart red fat-soluble dye is a food coloring designed to color chocolate, cocoa butter, and fatty preparations. Fat-soluble, it disperses in fatty substances without altering the texture, unlike water-soluble dyes that cause chocolate to seize.
Concentrated in a 25 ml bottle, it provides a bright red, ideal for fruity decorations and festive pieces. A few drops are enough to tint a mass of chocolate or cocoa butter.
