Colour Mill Oil-Based Food Coloring White 100 mL — Concentrated Oil-Dispersed Dye for Buttercream & Chocolate

When you need a true white or to mute colors without thinning your icing, an oil-based dye avoids water’s destabilizing effects. Colour Mill’s 100 mL white formula is designed for recipes that contain fats—like buttercream, ganache and chocolate—giving bakers and candy makers reliable opacity and a clean finish. The product is allergen-free, vegan-friendly, and formulated to meet Australian and New Zealand food-safety requirements.

How should I use this oil-based white coloring in buttercream and ganache?

Use small amounts and mix thoroughly for even coverage; oil-based pigments disperse best into fat-based systems. Start with a pea-sized portion and add more until you reach the desired opacity—white often requires more pigment than pastels.

• Works best in buttercream, Swiss meringue, ganache, and chocolate
• Add gradually and whip to fully incorporate without curdling
• No need for additional emulsifiers in fat-rich recipes

Will this white color affect texture or stability of my fondant and cake batters?

Because Colour Mill’s white is oil-dispersed, it won’t thin water-based batters; instead, it blends cleanly into fat-containing doughs and fondants. In cake batters that are primarily water-based, use sparingly or prefer a water-based color for less interference.

• Ideal for fondant and chocolate where oils are present
• Minimal impact on texture when used as directed
• Avoid overuse in high-liquid batters to prevent uneven mixing

How much will a 100 mL bottle cover for typical bakery projects?

A little goes a long way with concentrated oil colors; a 100 mL bottle provides many batches of buttercream or fondant decorations. Coverage depends on how opaque you need the white—full opacity requires more product than a subtle tint.

• A few drops often suffice for shading or light tints
• Expect multiple dozen cake batches for light use
• Reserve larger quantities for full-coverage finishes or commercial-scale runs

Is this safe for customers with dietary restrictions?

Colour Mill’s white oil color is labeled allergen-free and vegan, and it complies with food-safety standards in Australia and New Zealand. Always check the ingredient list and your local labeling requirements if you have specific allergies or certifications to meet.

• Vegan and free from common allergens
• Formulated to meet Australian/New Zealand food safety rules
• Store sealed and away from heat to maintain quality

Who is this for: Colour Mill 100 mL White oil-based coloring is aimed at professional bakers, cake decorators and home bakers who work primarily with fat-containing confections—buttercream, ganache, chocolate, and fondant—who need a reliable, concentrated white that preserves texture and delivers consistent, vibrant coverage. If you frequently make wedding cakes, molded chocolates or detailed fondant pieces, this product is formulated to meet those needs while remaining vegan and allergen-free.
