Frequently asked questions
Your questions, our advice
Is Midnight Blue food coloring fat-soluble, as needed for chocolate?
No. It is a water-soluble liquid coloring (water- and glycerin-based): it is suitable for buttercream, icing, fondant, and ganache, but does not mix with couverture chocolate or pure fat. To color chocolate, use a fat-soluble powder coloring.
What is the recommended maximum amount of Midnight Blue?
The stated maximum usage level is 8.7 g/kg. Adjust gradually using the dropper tip to control the color intensity.
Does Midnight Blue require any special precautions?
Yes: it contains E122 (azorubine), a colorant subject to the EU regulatory warning regarding children’s activity and attention. Check the product label before using it in a preparation intended for children.
How do you use Midnight Blue food coloring without making the mixture set?
Add the coloring drop by drop directly to the prepared mixture (buttercream, icing, fondant), mixing between each addition rather than pouring in the whole amount at once.
