Hi all,
I am making a Mardi Gras themed cake and the colors are Purple Green and Gold. I really don't want to use yellow in place of gold fondant. How do i go about painting the fondant gold? I have gold dust, but it's too pale. before i go and order, I wanted to know if i could find gold paint. I once found silver, but i can't remember where i found that. Any suggestions, advice, tips??? Thank you so much in advance!

I have found that if you paint the gold luster dust (mix the dust w/ vodka to make a thick paste) onto brown, it shows up really well and looks just right!

I have wondered the same thing..thank you! I will try that next time...

I'm sorry I don't have much experience with the gold dust but I was in Sur La Table recently (they also have online and catalog) and they had a pure gold edible paint. Kind of pricey though. HTH

Here ya go. Should answer pretty much any question you would have. Good luck!

Wow.. great tips.. Thank you so much!

Great video...she's awesome. Thank you
