Lemon is a Colour Mill oil-soluble food coloring in a 100 ml size, the range's large format designed for professional use or regular production, unlike the 20 ml bottle, which is intended more for occasional use. Its bright, tangy lemon-yellow shade blends directly into high-fat preparations without affecting their texture or set.
How many drops should I use to get the Lemon shade?
Use around four to six drops per 100 g of fat for a vivid Lemon shade. Gradually mix it into melted chocolate or lukewarm buttercream, stirring between each addition.
Is this Lemon food coloring suitable for fondant or royal icing?
Lemon is an oil-soluble food coloring formulated for high-fat preparations: melted white, dark or milk chocolate, cocoa butter, ganache and buttercream. It is not designed for water-based preparations such as royal icing or fondant made with water, in which it will not disperse properly. Reserve it for high-fat bases, especially summer entremets and tangy creations.
Is Lemon food coloring heat-resistant?
Because it is oil-soluble, Lemon is designed to be added to warm melted chocolate or lukewarm ganache without affecting the set or texture, making it suitable for summer entremets and tangy creations.
