🎨 What Is Oil‑Based Egg Yellow Colouring?
Oil‑soluble food coloring formulated for use in high-fat applications where water-based dyes would seize, separate, or degrade the texture. Commonly used in white chocolate, buttercream, compound coatings, gelatos, mirror glazes, and more.
Egg Yellow hues replicate the natural rich, warm yellow of egg yolk in your final product.
✅ Why Use Oil‑Based vs. Gel or Water Coloring?
-
Gel or water-based dyes can cause separation or grittiness when added to chocolate, buttercream, or other fat-rich mediums.
-
Oil-soluble colors integrate cleanly without altering texture, making them ideal for chocolate work and buttercream applications.
🧑🍳 Usage Tips & Handling
-
Always shake well before use to re-mix any separated pigments.
-
Start with a drop at a time and build color gradually to avoid over‑pigmentation.
-
For buttercream or chocolate, incorporate with gentle stirring or slow mixing to preserve emulsion
-
Store in a cool, dry, dark place to maintain consistency and shelf life.
