I used sparkle dust today and need help. I've used it with extract or vodka before and painted it on. Today I decorated a cake with all white buttercream and just wanted the top to sparkle. I ended up just "blowing" the dust onto the cake but what a mess! I got the effect I wanted but is there a better way to do this. It was just practice so I didn't mind blowing on it. It was everywhere though, I'm still finding it 5 hours later!
Thanks!
maybe try brushing it on with a large blush brush.
I use my small angular spatular to pick up the dust and then sprinkle over the cake; great for the bottom borders also 
If you don't have the spatular, a butter knife will work 
I use a piece of waxed paper and a small sieve.
I just lay the sieve on the waxed paper and put a small amount of the dust into the sieve. I then sprinkle the dust onto the cake by tapping the sieve lightly on the side. I use the waxed Paper to catch any leftover dust and that way I can reuse the dust.
Hope this helps
