Welcome to the Cake Decorators Q&A

I am making a naked cake for a friends daughters wedding in September. The design she likes has a gold lustred look around the top and bottom of the cake. What is the best way to apply gold lustre to buttercream. Thanks for any help anyone can give.

Hi mtfhayes

If you allow the crumb coat to set really well, the lustre can just be brushed on. Best to do it in gentle layers so as not to damage the buttercream. Keep layering until you get the effect required.
