Navy is a Colour Mill oil-based food colouring in a 100 ml size, the larger format in the range, designed for professional use or regular production work, unlike the 20 ml bottle, which is intended for occasional use. Its elegant dark navy blue shade blends directly into high-fat preparations without affecting their texture or setting.

Features
Oil-based food colouring, Navy shade (elegant dark navy blue)
100 ml bottle with dropper cap, production size for regular use
Suitable for melted white, dark and milk chocolate, cocoa butter, ganache and buttercream
Particularly suitable for nautical-themed decorations and baby showers
Several drops are needed for a rich Navy shade (use eight to ten drops per 100 g, or more depending on the opacity you want), especially in white chocolate. Add it gradually and let the colouring disperse before assessing the result.
Is this Navy food colouring suitable for fondant or royal icing?
Navy is an oil-based food colouring formulated for high-fat preparations: melted white, dark or milk chocolate, cocoa butter, ganache and buttercream. It is not designed for water-based preparations such as royal icing or fondant worked with water, where it will not disperse properly: reserve it for high-fat bases, particularly for nautical-themed decorations and baby showers.
Why choose the 100 ml size instead of 20 ml?
The 100 ml size is designed for production work: it suits regular production and large batches for nautical-themed decorations and baby showers, with a lower cost per ml than the 20 ml size intended for occasional use.
