Features
- Concentrated water-soluble food colouring for water-based mixtures: royal icing, water-based glazes, syrups, meringues and macarons
- Not suitable for fat-based mixtures (chocolate, ganache, cocoa butter): water causes chocolate to seize

- Colour remains stable after royal icing has fully dried (about 24 hours), without changing shade
- Gluten-free, lactose-free, egg-free, peanut-free and soy-free
Directions for use

- Typical dosage: 2 to 4 drops per 250 g for a pastel shade, up to 20 drops for a dark shade
- Mix and leave to rest 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

Frequently asked questions
Does the colour hold after the icing has fully dried?
Yes, the shade remains stable after the royal icing has fully dried, about 24 hours, making it suitable for decorated cookies sold several days after they are made.
How much should I use for a highly 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, allowing it to rest between additions.
Does the 20 ml bottle have a dropper?
Yes, the soft cap has a dropper opening: a gentle squeeze dispenses a precise drop.
