Colour Mill Merlot Oil-Based Colourant 20 ml

Merlot shade, 20 ml bottle for fat-based mixtures

Colour Mill Merlot evokes deep burgundy velvet and the dark hue of an evening gown. This concentrated oil-based food colourant is designed for fat-based baking mixtures: melted white chocolate, ganache, buttercream, and fondant warmed by hand. It is a popular choice among cake designers for high-end autumn wedding cakes and wedding anniversary layer cakes (ruby anniversaries, 40 years).

Features

  • Concentrated oil-based food colourant for fat-based mixtures: white chocolate, ganache, buttercream, fondant
  • 20 ml squeeze dropper bottle for precise dosing
  • Heat-stable up to 180°C; the shade does not lighten in the oven
  • Gluten-free, lactose-free, egg-free, peanut-free, and soy-free; suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets
  • Made in Australia using proprietary pigment encapsulation technology

Directions for use

  • Shake the bottle for 10 seconds before use and add to a mixture tempered to between 25 and 30°C
  • Typical dosage: 2 to 4 drops per 250 g for a pastel shade, up to 20 drops for a dark shade
  • Mix for 30 to 60 seconds, then let stand for 30 minutes: the colour develops fully while resting
  • Do not use on a water-based mixture (royal icing, syrup): the Colour Mill water-based range is designed for this purpose

Please note: the 20 ml size is suitable for colour testing and occasional use; for regular production, the 100 ml size from the Colour Mill range costs less per ml.

Frequently asked questions

Does this colourant withstand oven baking?

Yes, the shade remains stable up to 180°C and does not lighten after baking, unlike many conventional liquid colourants.

How many drops should I use per 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 colour gradually.

There is separation in the 20 ml bottle—is this normal?

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