Colored Cocoa Butters from ChefRubber


Posted in: Opinion

Hi everyone, I am a new business in Australia. I to want to start using colored cocoa butter to decorate my molds. I have purchased many items in the US as the options here are very limited. The problem is that the cost of getting them here makes for quite expensive outcomes. I wish to make my own colored cocoa butters and am seeking out advise and instruction on the best way to do this. I imagine that I could melt cocoa butter to 45 C, add oil based color and table temper it. Then I can have a quantity of various colors on hand in temper. Does this sound about right? Are liquid oil based colors better than powder? Will I be able to get the strong colors that I see in bottles on the Chef Rubber website? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!
