I need to make engagement ring cookies. The brides ring is white gold so I'm thinking I can do the ring band and stone mount in white or pale gray and brush silver lustre dust on for the silver shimmer. Please let me know if anyone has done this and if it works or if it will just be a glitter mess. I need these cookies in 2 weeks so please help!

Thanks
Susan

I did a princess crown in gray before I "painted" in silver luster dust. Worked nicely. I would assume that brushing it on would be just as successful.

It will work. If you use the wilton dust, use gray fondant, because their silver dust on white fondant comes out looking gray and dirty.

If you can get some Amerimist silver sheen airbrush color, you can paint that on with a paintbrush and it comes out looking like metal, even over white fondant.
