Colour Mill Violet Oil-Based Food Coloring 20 ml
Violet shade, 20 ml bottle for fat-based mixtures
Colour Mill Violet evokes crystalline amethyst and a violet stormy sky. This concentrated oil-based food coloring is designed for fat-based baking mixtures: melted white chocolate, ganache, buttercream, and fondant softened by the warmth of your hands. This shade is especially popular for mystical and witch-themed cupcakes, and sophisticated adult Halloween layer cakes.

Frequently asked questions
Does this coloring work in melted chocolate?
Yes, that is its main use: it is formulated for fat-based mixtures (white chocolate, ganache, cocoa butter) and disperses smoothly without lumps in a melted, tempered mixture.
How much should I use for a highly saturated shade?
Start with 5 to 10 drops per 250 g of mixture and adjust in increments of 2 to 3 drops until you reach the desired shade, allowing it to rest between additions.
Does the 20 ml bottle have a dropper?
Yes, the soft cap has a dropper opening: a gentle squeeze dispenses a precise drop.
