Annatto - Natural Cheese Colorant - 50ml - Mad Millie

A natural colorant derived from seeds of Achiote trees. Used to create a more yellow colour in cheddar but can also be used in some boutique blue cheeses to create a beautiful colour contrast.

Directions: Dosage depends on desired colour intensity. As a guide, use between 0.1 and 0.5 ml per litre of warmed milk before adding culture or rennet. This is a natural product and colour may vary from batch to batch.

Ingredients: colour (annatto extracts).

Mad Millie is a young Kiwi company with a passion and love for all things delicious and handcrafted. We also love to share our passion with you by giving you the opportunity to do this yourself at home.

We’re famous for our cheese making kits which allow you to make an array of gourmet cheeses such as feta, cheddar, halloumi, mozzarella, Camembert and more, as well as including making butter! Homemade cheese is something we want to prove can be done in your kitchen with your own hands! Plus they make fantastic gifts too.

We don’t stop there though. What better way to accompany your gourmet cheese than with homemade sausages, cider, beer, yoghurt and more. Our Fresh Sausage Kit is packed with homemade sausage making recipes, our Boutique Brewery Kits allow you to make refreshing cider or beer to help quench your thirst and we look after you too with kits such as Greek Yoghurt and Kefir that are full of healthy benefits!

The beauty of making things yourself is that you know exactly what goes in it, you can avoid nasty additives and you can make it just how you like it! Don’t just take our word for it though we’ve had others tell us how much they enjoy our kits too.

We’ve made it easy, quick and provided you with anything specialised, so why don’t you give it a try!
