Is there anything I can paint fondant to make it look all glossy?

Question

I'm planning on making some cupcakes for Halloween, the twist is that instead of the classic cherry I'm going to mold some skull cherries out of fondant instead.

Now I need a way to make them look as glossy and shiny as real cherries, is there a glace of some sort I can apply?

Answer 1

You'll need to find yourself a bakery supply store and take a look at the powders they have for painting and coloring fondant. Go online and take a look at what's out there as well. I found a great site for Wildflowers, a place in New Jersey that does classes and cakes....great stuff!
