Your questions, our advice
Can this food coloring be used in melted chocolate?
No: this is a water-based, water-soluble food coloring. In chocolate or ganache, water causes the fat to seize. For these bases, use the oil-soluble Colour Mill range.
Should I adjust the amount according to the quantity of mixture?
Yes, the stated amount is for 250 g of base: double or triple the number of drops proportionally for larger quantities.
How should I store the 20 ml bottle after opening?
Close it tightly after each use, store away from light at 15 to 22 °C, and use within 12 months to preserve the intensity of the pigments.
