How Do I Color Chocolate?

“I want to color my chocolate orange. I noticed you sell flavored orange chocolate, but I don’t want the flavor. I just want the color. Can I color the chocolate myself?”

-Deana

Deana,

Yes! You can color your chocolate. However, you can’t use just any food coloring. Since chocolate is oil-based, the food coloring has to be as well. If you used regular food color, then your chocolate would seize up, and you wouldn’t be able to use it. Be sure when adding color, to use oil-based food coloring only. We have a variety of colors to choose from!

Have fun coloring!

    It’s great to know I can color my chocolates! But what about adding flavor? What flavorings are compatible with compound chocolate?
