i use Gin, or over here we can buy rejuvinator spirit which works just as well and is cheaper to buy
I use vodka and/or lemon extract. I've used it on fondant, and even on fresh buttercream.. Just have to use a very light touch if using it on fresh icing. Very light.
Hope this helps,

i only use vodka to paint w/ luster dust, using extract dries to fast and leaves to many streaks. it goes on way smoother w/ the grain alcohol. good luck ![]()
I'm so glad you brought this up! I just tried LD for the first time this weekend, and all I had was Lemon Juice. Of course it didnt' work well & I was quite discouraged. I'm going to try to the Vodka & give it another whirl. Also- anyone- does the alcohol make a difference on how the LD takes to candy melts?? I wasn't having luck with that either. I'm sure some of these questions sound silly, but I'm still glad there's a place to get them answered!
