Edible Gold Luster Dust for Cakes and Candy
So you want to make that candy sparkle and shine. Or how about a cake or a cookie? This gold luster dust gives you a nice subtle shimmery touch you have been looking for.
Gold Luster Dust

Much finer than the glitter, luster dust can be brushed on the chocolate after it has cooled. Luster dust adds a shimmery touch to cakes, candies and cookie projects.
Units: 2 grams. Use the luster dust
to add to any chocolate and mold for a beautiful gold look. You
only use very little of the luster dust for a beautiful shine. Not 24K. Use with candy paint brush. We also have 24k gold dust!
Dark Chocolate Mousse Cake with Edible Gold Dust
Use: 8 in or 9 in tart tin
1 tablespoon ground almonds plus extra for dusting
1 bag of Guittard dark chocolate
1/2 cup of sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter
pinch of salt
5 large eggs
edible gold dust
Preheat the oven to 350F. Brush the tin with a little melted butter and edible gold dust with the ground almonds. Shake off any excess gold dust.
Melt the chocolate, sugar, butter and salt in a microwave bowl in 30-second intervals, stir in between intervals.
Whisk the eggs with the ground almonds and fold into the chocolate mixture. The mixture will thicken after a few minutes. Pour into the cake tin and bake for 35-40 minutes.
Let the cake cool, then dust with edible gold dust.
