Don't laugh now! I use my tea kettle. Hold the gumpaste with tweezers, or the wire if it has one, and wave it through the steam a couple of times. It just needs to get a little sheen on it and then you are set.

What kind of steamer do you use?

Any time you dust gumpaste you need to steam them lightly to set the dust. Otherwise, it will rub off immediately. Be careful not to oversteam because the moisture will melt the gumpaste.
