Know also that other metal leaf varieties also exist, although, once again, you’ll want to make sure that your copper leaf and silver leaf are indeed edible before you decide to eat it. We recommend you getting a pair of tweezers that you can use real gold flakes on cakes, dessert, chocolates and savory dishes.

Perfect for Christmas, this edible gold adorns your food and drink with the finest luxury life can offer.

Pure gold is the oldest form of beaten metal with the technique dating back to the ancient Egyptians. That said though, you should refrain from doing so with your hands and instead use some sort of brush and an anti-static tweezers such as those made from bamboo or carefully coated steel tweezers. The beauty of this form of decoration is that the gold flakes will work perfectly well as a garnish to decorate both savoury dishes and desserts. They are also widely used to make unique and unforgettable cocktails, as well as in champagne flûtes, spirits and fine liqueurs.

You don't need much to add some eye-catching sparkle to your work, and we have found that 'less is more' as using gold flakes in larger amounts can encourage unwanted bubbles to form. SOSA Potato Whip is a substitute for albumin and is suitable for vegans and those with allergies to milk and soya protein. The flakes are a way to show you have mastered decorating impeccable dishes and single-portion pastries by adding a touch of the spectacular(*). When it comes to determining whether some gold flake or gold leaf is edible, the primary way of doing so is to determine the purity quality of the gold.
