OptimumOil® Lagoon is a next generation oil-based food colouring specially formulated for colouring fat-based ingredients where traditional water-based colours fail.

Developed for professional bakers and chocolatiers, this highly concentrated colour blends smoothly into chocolate, cocoa butter, buttercream, ganache, and other fat-rich mediums without causing splitting, seizing, or texture changes.

Whether you're creating vibrant chocolates, bold buttercream finishes, or rich ganache tones, OptimumOil® delivers intense colour with exceptional consistency and control.

Colour made to create.

A little goes a long way. Follow the easy steps below to achieve smooth, even colour.

A little goes a long way: colours intensify with time.

1. Shake the bottle extremely well before use to ensure even colour distribution.

2. Add the colour gradually to your mixture while stirring.

3. Mix thoroughly, adjusting the amount as needed to reach the desired hue.

What's the Secret?

Most food colourings are water-based, which means they do not mix well with fats. When added to chocolate, cocoa butter, buttercream, or ganache, they can cause the mixture to seize, split, or become grainy.

OptimumOil® is different.

It is specially developed with an oil-compatible colouring system that disperses smoothly into fat-based ingredients. This allows the colour to blend evenly throughout chocolate, buttercream, ganache, and other oil-rich mixtures without affecting texture or stability.

The result is smooth, vibrant colour with professional consistency, even in the most delicate fat-based applications.

That’s the OptimumOil® difference.
