Colour Mill Sand Oil-Based Food Coloring 100 ml
Sand shade, Pro 100 ml format for fat-based ingredients
Colour Mill Sand evokes a sunset dune and a deserted beach. This concentrated oil-based food coloring is designed for fat-based baking ingredients: melted white chocolate, ganache, buttercream, and fondant. The 100 ml bottle is suited to kitchens with regular production: for the same volume, it costs around 35% less per ml than the 20 ml bottle. This shade is especially popular for regularly produced nature- and boho-themed wedding cakes, and nomadic-chic-themed event cupcakes.

Your questions, our advice
Can it be used in water-based icing or royal icing?
No, this oil-based food colouring is designed for fat-based mixtures. For royal icing, syrups or water-based icings, use the Colour Mill water-soluble range.
What dosage gives a well-saturated shade?
Start with 5 to 10 drops per 250 g of mixture and adjust in increments of 2 to 3 drops until you reach the desired shade, letting it rest between additions.
Does the 100 ml bottle have a dropper?
Yes, the soft cap has a dropper opening: a gentle squeeze dispenses a precise drop.
