Take a small quantity if egg whites and color it which ever color you want spread it thinly over a baking paper and let dry, crumple the paper and store the glitter in a jar. If you want it white leave it clear if you are working with white royal icing it will look white anyway.
This is from Comprehensive Cake Decorating Book by Vi Whittington.

2 tablespoons gum arabic
heavy duty aluminum foil
1" brush
food color (unless white is desired)
Preheat oven to 250 degrees. In small pan, combine water and gum arabic and dissolve over low heat. Whip with small wire whip to speed dissolving. Do not allow to boil. when dissolved, immediately pour mixture through a small strainer or cheese cloth. add color at this time if desired. Place sheet of foil, shiny side up, on a cookie sheet. brush strained solution onto foil. Place in oven. Watch closely to prevent burning. When it appears dried, crackled and curled into flakes or sheets, remove from oven and brush glitter off foil with paper towel. Let cool. when cool, push glitter through tea strainer with back of spoon toto enhance.
