How to use
Apply the edible gold leaf flakes to finished products using clean, dry tweezers, a soft brush or a folded piece of parchment to transfer the flakes without tearing them. For best adhesion, place flakes onto slightly moist, brushed or greased surfaces so they settle smoothly; avoid applying to steaming hot surfaces where moisture and heat can affect handling. Use sparingly to achieve the desired visual effect, and follow the manufacturer’s handling and storage guidance printed on the package.
Usage recommendations
When working with gold leaf flakes, handle them gently in a low-draft environment to prevent tearing or loss. Keep flakes in their original packaging until use and close packaging tightly between sessions. Use food-safe tools and ensure hands and utensils are clean to maintain hygiene and appearance.
