To get that perfect pale gold lustred finish, try the new Irridescent Gold Fusion Edible Silk lustre dust . Mix with Everclear alcohol or rejuvenator liquid and paint onto the fondant surface with a wide, flat brush, then once dry, buff in circular motion with a round, flat brush to remove streaks for a smooth finish.
