Notes: For a more dramatic effect, consider using multiple colors of edible glitter. You can also mix the glitter into your frosting for a shimmering effect throughout!
A drip cake is a showstopper at any event, and adding edible glitter takes it up a notch! Start by baking a two-layer cake and frosting it with a smooth layer of ganache (a mix of chocolate and cream). Once the ganache has set slightly, carefully drip melted chocolate down the sides of the cake. While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle edible metallic glitter on the drips and the top of the cake. This creates a gorgeous, shiny effect that elevates the overall design. Pairing the glitter with a complementary cake board can really tie the whole look together.
Notes: Experiment with different flavors of ganache, such as white chocolate or caramel, for a unique taste. You can also use edible glitter in various colors to match your theme or event!
Cupcakes are perfect for any occasion, and adding edible glitter can transform them into delightful treats! Bake a batch of your favorite cupcakes, and once they have cooled, frost them using a piping bag for an elegant swirl. After frosting, sprinkle edible glitter on top for that extra sparkle. This technique can be especially effective for themed parties, such as using red and green glitter for a holiday gathering or pastel colors for a baby shower. The glitter not only makes the cupcakes visually appealing but also adds a fun element that kids will love.
Notes: For a different look, try using edible glitter on fondant decorations or even edible flowers placed atop the cupcakes. Mixing different shapes and sizes of cupcakes can also create a stunning dessert display!
