<p>I use quick dry essence - pour out a tsp in a tot glass - dip my brush in the essence then dip the brush into the dust and paint onto fondant - small firm strokes.</p>
<p>But I also try to make my fondant color the closest shade to the dust that I can.</p>

Thanks for posting the YouTube video Goreti. I noticed that Rose says in the video, she doesn't use lemon juice. But lemon oil extract is NOT lemon juice. Totally different. Make sure Sandra that the bottle of extract says "pure lemon oil". My lemon extract was twice the price of the brand with artificial lemon in it, because it contained real lemon oil and not the fake stuff.<br />
But I like the idea of a base of airbrush colour. You could use any colour, brown, yellow, blue, etc., and add your…

<p>Thank you June and Goreti! June, I will try the lemon extract instead of my cheap booze, which is 95% alcohol - 190 proof.</p>
<p>Goreti, I watched your video again yesterday and I WILL be buying airbrush gold color as a mixing medium the next time I go to town. </p>
<p>Thank you both.</p>

<br />
Add the piping gel, a little at a time, mixing well until the consistency for piing in reached. Use a very small piping bag and tip as needed. The leftovers can be put into a small container and stored in the refrigerator. It will keep indefinitely YOU NEED 4 GRAMS FOR THIS ! PLUS YOU CAN ADD MORE POWDER SUGAR , YOU WILL LOVE IT ! Sandra,
