Hi,

I searched on the Internet but did not find anything to help me. I wanted to make a gold drizzle on some black cake pops and cake balls but I am not sure what to use.

Can I mix something in white chocolate to pipe on top? Maybe gold luster dust?

Also, how do we make white chocolate golden in color to dip the cake balls in?

Thanks so much for you guys' help!!

I'd use a white drizzle then paint the areas you want gold with luster dust.

But painting it will not smudge the white drizzle? Will it look neat?

It won't smudge it you let the drizzle dry first.

So should I drizzle the white chocolate, let it dry and paint gold dust with a thin paintbrush? Thanks so much for the help!

I do a lot of gold and silver with airbrush color. You can paint it on with a brush with wonderful results. I noticed that Michael's have Duff's silver and gold but his pricing is ridiculous.

Thanks! I will see if I can buy the airbrush colors. I read several reviews that Duff's gold and silver are horrible to work with so I'll have to see if I find something else or just use luster dust.

What I read applied to the silver spray can. I bought the small bottle ($8.95 in Canada) of gold air brush color and it works very well.

No, I think you misunderstood me. The reviews on the spray can are not good. It's the small bottles of liquid airbrush color that work well. I paint it on with a brush. Hope you get this before you go shopping.
