Morning! I am doing a firetruck cake this weekend and wanted to know how to get the shiny chrome look for the trim. I need to do the middle part of the truck, the bumpers, and the rims. Thanks for any help you can offer!

Get some silver luster dust. Mix with vodka and paint. It will look very cool! Good luck.

Can clear rum be used to mix with luster dust?

Another hint......whatever pieces you are going to paint, start out by making them from gray fondant rather than white.
