Colour Mill Oil-Based Food Coloring Baby Blue 100 mL — Concentrated, Oil-Compatible for Buttercream & Chocolate

Whether you're crafting buttercream rosettes, tempering chocolate, or tinting ganache, this concentrated oil-based dye gives a consistent baby blue hue without seizing fats. Made by Colour Mill and supplied in a generous 100 milliliter bottle, the formula is designed for oil-containing applications where water-based colors fail. The product meets Australian and New Zealand food-safety requirements and is produced without common allergens or animal-derived ingredients.

How will this oil-based color behave in buttercream and ganache?

This dye disperses into fats and chocolate smoothly, producing vibrant shades without altering texture. Because it’s oil-compatible, it avoids the curdling or splitting that can happen when water-based colors meet high-fat recipes.

• Designed for buttercream, Swiss meringue, and ganache
• Concentrated pigment—use sparingly for deep color
• No effect on mouthfeel when used at recommended amounts

Can I use Colour Mill baby blue in cake batters and fondant?

Yes — it can tint cake batters and fondant effectively, though a little goes a long way. For batters, blend thoroughly to distribute color evenly; for fondant, knead until you reach a uniform tint.

• Works well in cake batter, fondant, and Swiss meringue
• Best for recipes containing butter, oil, or other fats
• Helps achieve pastel to intense blue tones through dilution

Is this color safe for dietary preferences or allergies?

Colour Mill Baby Blue is formulated to be vegan and free from common allergens, making it suitable for many dietary needs. The dye is manufactured to comply with the food safety standards set by Australian and New Zealand authorities.

• Vegan-friendly and allergen free
• Meets Australia and New Zealand food-safety standards
• Produced under food-grade manufacturing practices

How do I get the exact shade I want without wasting product?

Start with a few drops and increase gradually—oil-based colors are highly concentrated. Test on a small sample of your recipe, adjusting until you hit the desired baby blue intensity.

• Begin with minimal drops and stir thoroughly
• Use separate bowls to trial shades before committing to full batch
• Record drop counts for repeatable results in future batches
