CAKESTAR Oil-Based Food Coloring Set 8×20ml — Concentrated, Fat-Soluble Colors for Chocolate & Buttercream

CAKESTAR 20ml Oil Based Food Coloring set delivers eight concentrated, fat-soluble colors designed to tint chocolate, buttercream, and other oil-rich confections without seizing or changing texture.

Whether you're tempering chocolate, tinting ganache, or coloring butter-based frostings, oil-based food dyes are the reliable choice for even, bright hues. This CAKESTAR kit includes eight popular shades—Black, Royal Blue, Red, Lemon, Green, Orange, Tiffany, and Purple—each in a 20 g (0.71 fl. oz) dropper bottle. The formula is gluten-free, vegan, kosher, halal, and nut-free, and it blends seamlessly into fats and oils, helping you achieve vivid, stable color for professional-looking results.

How do these oil-based colors perform with chocolate and cocoa butter?

Because the dyes are fat-soluble, they combine directly with chocolate and cocoa butter without causing the chocolate to seize. The concentrated formula requires only small drops to reach deep saturation, leaving texture and mouthfeel unchanged when used correctly.

• Specifically designed for fat mediums like tempered chocolate and ganache
• High concentration means fewer drops per batch for intense shade
• Maintains smooth consistency—no graininess or separation
• Shake bottles well before use to ensure uniform color

Can I use CAKESTAR oil colors in buttercream, fondant, and candy?

Yes—these oil-based colors work particularly well with butter-based buttercreams, chocolate-centered candies, and fat-containing icings. They may not fully disperse in water-based icings or sugar-paste fondant without altering consistency, so use sparingly or prefer gel/aqueous dyes for water-rich recipes.

• Perfect for buttercreams, ganaches, candy coatings, and chocolate shells
• Not recommended as the primary dye for water-thinned royal icing or sugar glaze
• Pair with powdered ingredients to minimize moisture changes
• Use incremental drops—mix thoroughly between additions

What shades are included and how concentrated are they?

The set contains eight widely used colors tailored for bakery and confection work: Black, Royal Blue, Red, Lemon, Green, Orange, Tiffany, and Purple. Each 20 g bottle has a high pigment load, so a little goes a long way—ideal for creating bold tones or building subtle pastels with careful dilution.

• Eight popular, bakery-ready shades for wide creative range
• 20 g / 0.71 fl. oz bottles—compact and easy to store
• High concentration reduces the amount needed per recipe
• Shake well to ensure consistent color strength before use

How should I store and handle these oil food colorings?

Keep bottles tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct heat and sunlight. The dropper-style tops let you add color in small increments for precise control; always test color on a small sample of your mixture before committing to a full batch.

• Store at room temperature, away from heat and sunlight
• Tighten caps after each use to prevent evaporation or contamination
• Use dropper for controlled dosing; mix thoroughly after each addition
• Follow recipe tests for final shade—colors can deepen slightly over time

Who is this for: Home bakers, cake decorators, chocolatiers, and candy makers who need reliable, oil-compatible coloring solutions will appreciate this CAKESTAR set. It’s suited for hobbyists and professionals aiming for vibrant, stable color in fat-based confections without changing texture—ideal for seasonal decorations, specialty chocolates, and small-batch artisan sweets.
