This is the pic that i am talking about. Thank you.
If you are using a crusting buttercream then you could dust it with a soft brush and petal dust. Otherwise perhaps you could fill a couple of bags with the darker shades and swirl them through as you cover the cake with White.
That seems more complicated on paper than in my head so I've probably been as clear as mud. Hope it helps anyway.
Yours aye

Thank you all for your tips, more welcome. i wish i new the person who made this cake and asked them. shall give the petal dust a try or even light blue luster dust a try.Tried the swirls of light blue butter cream, mmm ok, but still doesnt look like the picture. thank you once again for your prompt response
You might be able to use the spray on colors by Wilton. I have never used them but they seem to be the closest thing to an airbrush I can think of...HTH
You can buy them at Michael's but I put the amazon link below just so you would know what product I was referring to. It comes in a variety of colors.
