Can someone please tell me where I can find the sugar diamonds, I need the loose ones that you can put anywhere on the cake...Please help...
TIA
I found them earlier today at the following two sites when I was looking for crystals:
http://www.pastrychef.com/SUGAR-DIAMONDS_p_1580.html
and
http://www.fancyflours.com/site/xdpy/sf/Cake%20Jewels/Jewels/index.html
I had to get mine from Squires in the UK - Think there is roughly 56 in a box.
And i when they turned cloudy due to the humidity -
Guess i will have to only use them in winter -
Bluehue.
Mine had a thing in it that says if they turn cloudy with humidity change to spray them with spray cooking oil and it will shine them back up. I did it and it did, they just sparkled after that!
I noticed that all of the suppliers for the diamonds say they are made from Isomalt. I bought some of the stuff and have tried using it to make "jewels" about a dozen times and it ALWAYS turns yellow. Anyone know the key to keeping it crystal clear?
I got mine from fondant source. Use cake central in your coupon code for 20% off.
Has there coupon percentage amount changed? The last time I used it is was 10% off. That's what I've been telling everyone on my posts. I would be great if it has, just means more toys for me.....
OOOPppps. It is 10% SO SORRY!!!! 20% was on something else I ordered recently for my daughter.....ahhh confusion of late nights!

It will turn yellow if you heat it up too much, so just turn the heat down and don't get it so hot. It should stay clear.
I am going to make some of these for a Sweet Sixteen cake, and I hope they don't yellow. I also have one of those little humidity packs from my meds that I'm gonna stick in the bag with them. That should do the trick with the humidity, and I sure hope so. It is SOOO HUMID HERE!!!!!
