I would imagine you would or could dye some fondant black and cut it out and do it that way, OR you could paint them on (which is what it looks like a little there), but with what I don't know.

I prefer to color fondant with powder colors mixed with vodka or lemon extract ( like the luster dust powders). Just be carefull not to give to much liquid to the powder, as the intensity will not be as good ( the same as you would use water-colors).
