Maybe- cover in fondant and paint it with silver luster dust? I'm not sure f that's the right color or look. Do you have a pic of the object?
I just got all the newest satin, silver, gold, and silk luster dusts at http://www.lorrainescakesupply.com/ and they were $3 each...a bargin !
I used Luster Dust mixed with lemon extract to paint the mag wheels on a cake. The wheels were made out of Satin Ice fondant. The cake is in my photos under From Bears to wheels or something like that. I just painted them with a paint brush until they were the color I wanted. For a whole cake you would probably use at least 2 of the containers. Just guessing though.
Great. Thanks so much for the ideas. Next question, i've never worked with dust. what do i use to dust it on with and how much would it take to do an entire cake?
Probably the easiest to do is spray it on with an airbrush or the preval sprayer. If not you can paint it on too. I've also heard that mixing in pearl dust with the silver gives it a more "chrome" look.
GL!
