Guide to Edible Metallics
Yup. There's nothing sexier on cakes and desserts than metallics. But navigating the edible from the inedible, what to use on Chocolate vs. Cake vs. Cookies for stenciling, painting, airbrushing...the ECG's noggin' is aching just typing this, so she's just going to lay out a guide to all things edible and metallic. So here it is our guide to MetEdible stuff.
Stenciling
Whether you're using Acrylic or Mesh Stencils, the answer is our Metallic Royal Icing Mix. This stuff is mega-shiny, and acts like a Royal Icing should. It dries hard so you can stencil all the way around a tier without smearing what you stenciled earlier. It is also opaque, so it shows up beautifully with Mesh Stencils, and the Pearl can be tinted with any Gel Food Coloring to make ANY color amazingly shiny!!

Dusting
We love the edible lustre powders. They are the perfect way to dust chocolates or other desserts to create a super metallic look. They can also be dusted over damp activator, or mixed with activator, alcohol or even cooking oil to create edible metallic paints!
Check out how we used our Shiny as Hell Edible Lusters to make Whoppers Candy into Edible Pearls!
And here's that activator technique!

Painting
Painting on cookies, macarons, royal icing, fondant, even buttercream, is a breeze with both Sweet Sticks Metallic paints, and our very own ECG IncrEdible Metallic paints. They even roll onto debossed cookies with a Lil' Rolly! For large areas, mix our Shiny as Hell Edible Lusters with high proof alcohol or lemon extract (check out that super shiny pearl cake by Tiers of Joy!)
Here's that Lil' Rolly technique.

Painting on Chocolate
Ordinary confectionery paints simply don't work on Chocolate. They bead up, and won't stick. That's why we love Poppy Paints! They're specially formulated for chocolate, and dry practically indestructable! Want to airbrush instead? Our ECG Airbrush Colors work on fondant, buttercream, royal icing, and yessssss...Chocolate!! They are hands-down, the best way to cover large areas without brush strokes. For finer details, mix any of edible luster with Sweet Sticks Activator or melted cocoa butter to create a paint that works on Chocolate as well.
