I need help using this luster dust. I look at pictures of cakes that people have used luster dust and it looks even as if it was part of the fondant. I have tried sprinkling it on with a sieve and painting it on and it always looks spotty. I was watching Ace of Cakes and he said he mixed it with something (what I missed) and painted it on. It looked shiny and almost metalic (he used green) and most importantly even! Any advise.
I use everclear. I used to use vanilla until I went to the ICES convention & all the great decorators use Everclear. It gets the luster dust to the perfect consistency that you need & dries fast so you don't have to wait to re-apply the luster dust.
It doesn't effect the flavor of your cakes. It's evaporates so fast.
