Description
Edible gold and silver leaf are ultra-thin sheets of food-grade metal used to add a touch of luxury to cakes, desserts and confectionery. These delicate leaves are carefully applied to fondant, chocolate, pastries and plated desserts to create a striking metallic finish.
Used for centuries in fine dining and confectionery, edible gold and silver are flavourless and designed purely for decoration. They are commonly applied to celebration cakes, chocolates, macarons, truffles and dessert garnishes, where even a small piece creates an elegant visual highlight.
Also known as gold leaf or silver leaf for cake decorating, they are handled gently with dry tools or tweezers and placed directly onto edible surfaces for a dramatic finishing touch.
