Common questions

Food colours: which type for which job
Gel and paste colours give strong colour with little liquid, for buttercream, fondant, royal icing and batters. Chocolate, candy melts and cocoa butter need oil-based or candy colours, because water-based gels make chocolate seize. Dusts and lustres add shimmer to finished decorations.

Can it colour chocolate?
Yes, it is oil-based for chocolate, candy melts and cocoa butter.

How much should I use?
Start with a drop or a toothpick's worth and build up; colours deepen as icing and fondant rest.

How should it be stored?
Closed, in a cool, dark place; shake or stir before use.

Does it change the taste?
Used in normal amounts it adds colour, not flavour; very deep shades such as black and red need more colour, so build them up over time.
