Composite phthalocyanine microparticles of a nano-order level, preferably on the order of 100 nm, that are optimal as a coloring material are provided; and a method for producing the same. The method for producing composite phthalocyanine microparticles includes a step (1) for preparing a dissolved solution by dissolving at least copper phthalocyanine and titanyl phthalocyanine and/or cobalt phthalocyanine as raw materials in a first solvent, a step (2) for precipitating composite phthalocyanine by mixing the dissolved solution obtained in step (1) with a second solvent that serves as a poor solvent of the abovementioned raw materials, and a step (3) for causing an organic solvent to act on the composite phthalocyanine obtained in step (2). Also provided are composite phthalocyanine microparticles containing at least copper phthalocyanine and titanyl phthalocyanine and/or cobalt phthalocyanine, the composite phthalocyanine microparticles having an aspect ratio of 1.1-2.5 and a particle size of 5-100 nm.
