Hi everyone.

I know that an oil based food coloring has to be used to color chocolate. However, is there a particular time during the melting/tempering cycle to add the dye?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Oil based lakes will work best. Add it any time the chocolate is melted, mix thoroughly 8-) before tempering is easiest.
