Description
xColour Mill Oil Blend Food Coloring Kickstarter Pack is a set of twelve 20 mL oil-based food colors formulated to deliver vivid, mixable shades for buttercream, chocolate, ganache, fondant and other oil-containing recipes.
This Kickstarter pack from Colour Mill includes twelve carefully chosen hues—Baby Pink, Black, Chocolate, Forest, Hot Pink, Lime, Orange, Purple, Red, Royal, Sky Blue and Yellow—each in a 20 milliliter bottle. The oil-dispersed formula makes these colors ideal when working with fat-rich mediums and recipes where water-based dyes can split or produce muted tones. Made to meet Australian and New Zealand food safety standards, the set is vegan and free from common allergens.
How will these oil-based colors perform in buttercream and ganache?
Oil-dispersed pigments blend smoothly into buttercream, Swiss meringue buttercream and ganache without seizing or separating. They deliver deeper saturation per drop than many water-based gels, so you need less product to reach bold shades.
- Designed for fat-based icings and chocolate
- Produces richer tones with fewer drops
- Less risk of splitting in fat-heavy recipes
- Good for tonal layering and gradient effects
Can I use these colors in cake batter, fondant and chocolate?
Yes — the oil formula disperses evenly in fat-containing batters, fondant and ganache for uniform color. For dry or water-dominant doughs, adjust liquid ratios or use sparingly; in chocolate and ganache they integrate without texture changes.
- Best for cake batter that includes butter or oil
- Suitable for rolled fondant and gum paste with kneading
- Specifically formulated to mix into melted chocolate and ganache
- Not ideal as a straight substitute in water-based icings without recipe tweaks
What practical advantages does the Kickstarter pack offer for bakers and decorators?
The twelve-color assortment covers foundational shades and specialty tones, letting you mix a wide palette without buying individual bottles. Compact 20 mL bottles are convenient for testing new shades, portable for classes, and useful for recipe development or product photography.
- Comprehensive starter set with primary and accent colors
- Small bottles minimize waste while sampling shades
- Portable and organized for workshops and events
- Consistent results across buttercream, chocolate and fondant
