How can I color fondant silver? Someone wants a silver and black fondant covered cake and I can't remember how to get a silver color on the fondant. TIA
Or if you don't have an airbrush, I've done white painted with silver luster dust. I should have done gray painted with the silver luster dust because the white took several coats to get the silver I wanted. Good luck!
I just needed silver for a cake last week. I tinted white fondat a very light grey (used a very, very small amount of black) and then dusted it with silver petal dust, worked perfectly.
I am working on silver gumpaste right now, and I would think it would work the same on fondant. Well, actually I was going for a chrome look, but the principle is the same. I mixed three colors: pewter, nu silver and super pearl. Very nice effect.
I tinted white gumpaste a medium gray, then mixed luster dust with vodka and painted it on. I had to keep adding drops of vodka because it dried out quickly in the little pot.
I didn't feel like the painted on mixture had quite enough depth, so once dry, I brushed the same mixture of dry luster dusts over the items, and they turned out great.
