Hi!

I am making a black and white themed wedding cake, and will be making fondant black pearls for the border.

I would like them to have a shene to them with pearl dust - but there is no black dust... can you use any color? or silver? I just don't want it to take away from the 'blackness' if I use a lighter color....

Beth Parvu sells charcoal color, I would mix that with super pearl. I made some with the regal purple (VERY dark purple) and it worked perfectly.

Here is her chart:
