You could try confectioner's glaze. I use that a lot to make a varnished wood look or a new-leather look.

Rubbing the pieces with shortening might give it a shine too. Not sure though since I've never tried it.

On the show, Sugar Rush, Episode "Over the Top", Mike McCarey used piping gel over his egg yolk cake to get that glossy sheen.

HTH!

That's a good idea and if you put it on thin enough and let it set long enough, it'll dry too so no sticky mess.

The shortening does give a nice finish too.
