I've looked at a number of Faye Cahill's gorgeous cakes and noticed quite a number of them have a pearlesque finish that looks brushed on wet rather than dry or air brushed. Could this be achieved by mixing pearl dust with vodka and brushing on with a wide brush while rotating the cake on a turntable or is there something I'm missing? It looks so even and not blotchy/streaky like painting with vodka sometimes turns out. Any tips to achieve this finish? Thanks!
