Frequently Asked Questions

How much Colour Mill do I use to colour buttercream?

Start with a few drops and increase gradually. Colour Mill is highly concentrated, so a little goes a long way. Mix thoroughly after each addition and allow the colour to develop for a few minutes before assessing the shade. For a deep Latte tone, you may need 10. 15 drops per batch of buttercream, depending on the quantity.

Can I use Colour Mill Latte in white chocolate?

Yes. Colour Mill Oil Based Colouring is specifically formulated for use with white chocolate and candy melts. Add the drops directly to the melted chocolate and stir until fully incorporated. Unlike water-based colours, oil-based colouring will not cause the chocolate to seize.
