Getting Sanding Sugar To Stick To A Zebra Print Fondant.
Decorating By Itsasweetlife Updated 9 Dec 2010 , 4:27pm by kcassano
Hi I am making a zebra print cake for a Birthday and would like the stripes to have black sanding sugar on them to make it really girly and sparkly. Does anyone know if I should apply the sugar to the stripes before I assemble the cake or should I do it after the stripes are on? I dont want the black sugar to mark up the white fondant.
Either way I think you'll end up with some on the white, but you can use a dry paint brush to get it off. Or why not use a luster/disco dust and paint the stripes?
*Smacking forehead* An empty squeeze bottle! Genius! Why didn't I think of that!
There have been many times that I have wished that canned air was food safe because I needed to blow something off a piece. Dang! An empty squeeze bottle. I've got like 6 of them hanging around.

I did a mini zebra cake (in pics)...and i wanted the stripes to be sparkly too. I cut them out, lightly brushed with water and then flipped them over and "dipped" them into the edible glitter. i let them setup for a sec and then i applied them to the cake. inevitably, you're going to get the sugar on the cake. it's impossible not to. i just used a dry brush to brush them off.
