Colour Mill Aqua Blend 20ml ROSE
Colour Mill Aqua Blend Rose is a soft, warm pink — romantic and feminine without veering into bright hot pink territory. This water-based 20ml colouring is a go-to for Valentine's Day biscuits, Mother's Day cakes, bridal showers, and any bake that calls for a delicate rosy hue. It blends beautifully into royal icing and fondant for consistent, elegant results.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Colour Mill Aqua Blend and Oil Blend?
Aqua Blend is a water-based food colouring designed for royal icing, fondant, meringue, and other water-based applications. Oil Blend is specifically formulated for chocolate, candy melts, and fat-based mediums like American buttercream. Using the wrong formula in the wrong medium can cause seizing or uneven colour — always match the colouring type to your base.
Is Colour Mill Aqua Blend Rose a soft blush or a vivid pink?
Rose falls between blush and mid-pink — it has more presence than a pastel blush but is softer than a hot pink or Raspberry. For a very pale blush effect in royal icing, use just 1–2 drops and mix thoroughly. For a more vivid rose, increase gradually. If you need a purer blush tone, blending Rose with a touch of Aqua Blend White softens and pastelises the shade.
