what food colouring is best to make Gold & silver. I'm making a New years eve cake and need to know thank-you ladies

Okay maybe no -one knows should I use gold & silver dust then?

You could use a gold/silver luster dust or airbrush.

thank-you Karen

If you use dust, Wilton's silver is pretty. Wilton's gold is very pale and not as vibrant. I would use a different brand for gold.

Hi ladies I just finished polishing the boarder in silver dust using vodka andI must say it's not that bad, but there has to be a better way of applying this dust. From afar it looks great but when u put your nose to it, I can see the imperfections. But that's okay though, most likely I'll be the only one who does.
I'm attempting to make a swag, have any of you ladies made one before?
