Attaching Glitter To Airbrushed Gumpaste?
Decorating By four321 Updated 11 Oct 2014 , 3:32am by maybenot
I have made red high heels for a cake topper. The airbrushing didn't come out as smooth as I would have liked, so I'm thinking of covering the toe of the shoes with some sparkle. Is there a way to do this? If I use gum glue over the red airbrushing, it will just make a mess.
Don't have time to make new shoes, so I am desperate for help! Thank you in advance!!
Piping gel might work OK. It's not very viscous. I'd try it on a scrap piece of red gum paste first.
Thank you for your suggestion Maybenot!!! Seems to have done the trick!!!
I was a little worried that it might allow the sparkles to smudge, but it seems to be working beautifully! I think it will set hard after they sit overnight.
This is just for a wedding cake topper, which I am handing over to someone tomorrow for a cake on Saturday. Not knowing how they will be handled concerns me, but I think they will be just fine :)
Thank you again!!!!!!
