The formula meets US food safety standards, is vegan and non-GMO, and holds color through heating and freezing when used as directed. Shake well before using to resuspend pigments and get predictable results every time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I use this oil-based color with chocolate and candy melts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdd a few drops of the amber color to melted chocolate, candy melts or ganache while stirring gently for even distribution. Because the dye is oil-soluble, it disperses into fat-based mediums without seizing the chocolate or thinning buttercream unexpectedly.

For buttercream and ganache it creates even, saturated tones without changing texture; for water-based fondants and icings you should use water-soluble colors instead.
