Colour Mill Water-Soluble Food Colouring Merlot

Merlot shade, 20 ml bottle for water-based mixtures

Colour Mill Water-Soluble Merlot evokes deep burgundy velvet and a dark evening gown. This water-based food colouring is designed for water-based pastry mixtures: royal icing, water-based glazes, syrups, meringues, and macarons. It naturally finds its place on royal icing biscuits, high-end autumn wedding cakes, and wedding anniversary cookies (ruby anniversary).

Features

  • Concentrated water-soluble food colouring for water-based mixtures: royal icing, water-based glazes, syrups, meringues, and macarons
  • Not compatible with fat-based mixtures (chocolate, ganache, cocoa butter): water causes chocolate to seize
  • 20 ml squeezable dropper bottle for precise dosing
  • Stable shade after royal icing has fully dried (approximately 24 hours), with no colour variation
  • Gluten-free, lactose-free, egg-free, peanut-free, and soy-free; suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets

Directions for use

  • Shake the bottle before use and add to a base at room temperature (18 to 22°C)
  • Typical dosage: 2 to 4 drops per 250 g for a pastel shade, up to 20 drops for a dark shade
  • Mix, then let stand for 15 minutes before adjusting the shade if needed
  • To colour chocolate or ganache, use the Colour Mill oil-soluble range, not this water-soluble colouring

Please note: this colouring is water-based: it must never be added to melted chocolate or ganache, as it may cause the mixture to seize.

Frequently asked questions

Is this colouring suitable for royal icing?

Yes, this is its primary use: it is designed for water-based mixtures (royal icing, water-based glazes, syrups, meringues, and macarons) and dries without changing shade.

How many drops should I use for 250 g of mixture?

Use 2 to 4 drops for a pastel shade, 5 to 10 drops for a vivid shade, and up to 20 drops for a dark shade. It is best to add the colouring gradually.

A separation has appeared in the 20 ml bottle—is this normal?

Yes, slight separation between the pigment and the carrier liquid is normal during prolonged storage: shake for 10 seconds before each use.
