Rust is a fat-soluble Colour Mill food coloring in a 100 ml format, the larger size in the range, designed for professional use or regular production, unlike the 20 ml bottle, which is more suited to occasional use.

Your questions, our advice
How many drops should I use to get the Rust shade?
For an intense Rust shade, several drops are needed (use eight to ten drops per 100 g, or more depending on the opacity you want), especially in white chocolate. Add gradually and allow the coloring to disperse before assessing the result.
Is this Rust food coloring suitable for fondant or royal icing?
Rust is a fat-soluble food coloring formulated for fatty mixtures: melted white, dark or milk chocolate, cocoa butter, ganache and buttercream. It is not designed for water-based mixtures such as royal icing or fondant worked with water, in which it will not disperse properly. Reserve it for fat-based mixtures, especially for bohemian-style autumn decorations.
Can Rust be mixed with another Colour Mill shade?
Yes, Colour Mill fat-soluble food colorings can be mixed together to make Rust lighter or more intense. Test on a small amount of fat before coloring the whole mixture.
