Could this colorant stain hands or the work surface?
Like any concentrated colorant, Lemon may slightly stain a porous surface or skin on direct contact. Wear gloves and quickly clean surfaces with hot, soapy water.
Is this colorant suitable for royal icing or fondant made with water?
No: Lemon is an oil-based, oil-soluble colorant. It blends into fats (chocolate, ganache, cocoa butter, buttercream) but does not dissolve in water-based preparations such as classic royal icing.
How long does the bottle keep once opened?
When tightly closed and stored away from light and heat, the Lemon bottle retains its properties for several months. Check the best-before date on the label.
