Violet is a Colour Mill oil-based food colorant in a 100 ml size, the larger format in the range, designed for professional use or regular production, unlike the 20 ml bottle, which is intended for occasional use. Its intense, deep violet shade blends directly into fatty preparations without affecting their texture or setting.

Your questions, our advice
How many drops should I use to achieve a Violet shade?
To achieve a rich Violet shade, you’ll need several drops (allow eight to ten drops per 100 g, or more depending on the desired opacity), especially with white chocolate. Add gradually and let the colorant disperse before assessing the result.
Is this Violet colorant compatible with fondant or royal icing?
An oil-based colorant, Violet is formulated for fatty 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 mixed with water, where it will not disperse properly. Use it with fatty bases, especially for Halloween decorations and fantasy creations.
Does the 100 ml bottle keep as well as the 20 ml one?
Yes: when sealed and stored at room temperature, away from direct light and heat, the Violet colorant remains stable for several months. The larger size simply helps you avoid running out during the Halloween rush when making decorations and fantasy creations.
