Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our advice
Why is the maximum dosage so low (0.76 g/kg)?
Orange is one of the most concentrated shades in the range; a single coloring is enough to achieve a bold shade. Above 0.76 g/kg, the shade darkens rather than becoming more intense.
Is it suitable for an autumn or Halloween theme?
Yes, Fractal Orange is commonly used for autumn and Halloween decorations, either on its own or mixed with a touch of Fractal Vivid Red for a deeper orange.
Can it be used in white chocolate?
Not recommended: this gel is water-based and is not compatible with chocolate, which requires a dedicated fat-soluble coloring.
