Flo-Coat is a food colouring agent that allows you to use any Colour Pastes to colour white chocolate and compound coatings. The advantage with this is, you will not have to buy a completely new range of Oil Based Colours to colour your chocolate. You can simply use Flo-Coat with your existing range of Colour Pastes. Ratio is 5 parts of Flo-Coat to 1 part of Colour Paste. To Colour Compound Coating: Melt 1lb (453.5g) of compound coating, then add 1 ½ Tablespoons of Flo-Coat and 1 Teaspoon of Colour Paste onto the Flo-Coat and mix thoroughly. The Flo-Coat will smoothly and evenly disperse the Colour Paste into the coating, resulting in a smooth and pourable consistency. As you proceed with your work and find that your coating is beginning to set up, add more Flo-Coat to keep it liquefied. Flo-Coat will not harm your coating regardless of the quantity used to maintain your desired consistency. Ratios are based on Americolor Colours and may vary from brand to brand.
