Conditional Formatting on Column Series in Chart

Hello Power BI Community,

 

I am struggling with this and dont know if there is a current solution. So I invested alot of time assigning Hex colours to different flavours/variants of products. I can now easily link this into a simple column chart when I select product as the main category axis. The issue that I have is that when I need to add another category (time in this example), the product then becomes the "Column Series" and when you go to column options, there is no place to choose conditional formatting.

 

Really hoping there is a way to do what I am trying to achieve

Correct colours working in a simple chart with no time axis
