What is Colour Mill?

Colour Mill is a premium oil-based food colouring designed specifically for fat-rich mediums such as buttercream, white chocolate, and ganache. Unlike conventional water-based colourings, which struggle to mix with oils and fats, Colour Mill food colouring disperses beautifully, ensuring an even, vibrant finish. This unique formulation makes it an ideal choice for achieving deep and striking shades in all your baking projects.

Is this food colouring oil based?

Yes! Colour Mill food coloring is entirely oil-based, making it perfect for buttercream, chocolate, cake batters, and even fondant. This advanced formula allows the pigments to bond directly with fats and oils, preventing separation and providing a consistent, smooth colour. Whether you’re using Colour Mill 100ml for large-scale baking or Colour Mill 20ml for smaller projects, you can expect professional-grade results every time.

How to use your Colour Mill food colouring

Colour Mill food colouring is incredibly versatile and can be used in a variety of baking applications. Here are some popular uses:

Can you paint with Colour Mill?

Yes, you can paint with Colour Mill food colouring. Its highly concentrated pigments make it ideal for painting directly onto cakes, cookies, and other confections. To use it as a paint, mix a small amount of Colour Mill with a clear alcohol or rejuvenator spirit to create a smooth, paint-like consistency. This method allows for detailed and precise designs, perfect for creating intricate patterns and decorations.

Can you use Colour Mill for macarons?

Absolutely! Colour Mill food colouring is perfect for macarons. Its oil-based formula ensures that the colour is evenly dispersed throughout the macaron batter, leading to vibrant and uniform hues. Since macarons require a delicate balance of ingredients, the use of Colour Mill helps maintain the consistency and structure of the batter without adding excess liquid, which can affect the final product.

Can you use Colour Mill in royal icing?

Yes, Colour Mill can be used in royal icing. When adding it to royal icing, the colour blends smoothly, ensuring a consistent shade without streaking. This is particularly useful for detailed piping work and flooding cookies, where an even and vibrant colour is essential. The oil-based nature of Colour Mill ensures that the icing maintains its consistency while providing a rich, intense colour.

Can you use Colour Mill on fondant?

Yes, Colour Mill food colouring can be used on fondant. It is excellent for kneading into fondant to achieve a uniform colour or for painting designs directly onto the surface. When kneading, the colour incorporates evenly without making the fondant sticky or altering its texture. For painting, mix Colour Mill with a clear alcohol to achieve the desired consistency and apply it with a brush for precise designs.
