Hi there,

I have been looking for a fine tip edible white marker for adding that white sparkle to my fondant character’s eyes. Wilton makes colors, but no white. Does anyone know where I can purchase one? I’d appreciate any thoughts on this.

I’ve not seen any white edible markers. I just use white Americolor food coloring and a tooth pick. HTH

I did a quick Google search, and found this Wilton White Marker http://www.cater4you.co.uk/acatalog/wilton-white-icing-writer.html?gclid=COX0t6ml5coCFSoEwwod65MJ0Q
I use a 00000 fine paint brush wth edible white mixed with a little vodka

Callicious…it is a food writer..actually icing..too fat of a tip, good for writing names etc..

Glad you asked this, have been trying to find one myself. I do use gel paste white, but my hands are so unsteady that I sometimes add a huge blob!

Charis, I put the white highlights in eyes using Wilton’s white liquid food color. I dip a toothpick in the color, blot off any excess, then gently touch to the area to be highlighted. Repeat if needed.

I find that small white non-pareils (round sprinkles) are great for adding sparkles in the eyes.

Ahh, thanks Melanie, good to know… I don’t use edible markers, I prefer a paintbrush. So my ignorance shows. :)
great idea Sandra🤗🤗

Thank you so much for the responses! I been trying to make super small fondant dots for the whites. It never looks perfect and it’s hard to work with. All these suggestions sound like much better ideas! Thanks very much!
