She explains in great detail what to look for in a TRULY EDIBLE FDA COMPLIANT LUSTER DUST vs a NON EDIBLE LUSTER DUST. So if you are looking for an FDA compliant EDIBLE gold dust that is still shiny, than read the FULL Article directly on Georganne Bell website, LilaLoa, titled;
Top Ten Best FDA Approved Edible Gold Dusts for Cookie Decorating
WHAT IS NON-TOXIC GOLD DUST vs EDIBLE FDA COMPLIANT DUST OR GLITTER?
Edible: You can consume it and eat it (same as food-grade)
Food Grade: You can consume it and eat it (same as edible)
Non-toxic: Contains non-harmful and/ or non-toxic ingredients but is not FDA compliant (same as non-edible)
Non-edible: Advisable not to eat the product (same as non-toxic)
** Please note: Not ALL dusts and glitters that claim to be edible and/ or food-grade are indeed edible and/ or food-grade. In fact, more often than not, they are not. Many knock off brands "cut" their glitters and dusts with non-edible and non-FDA approved ingredients to make a quick buck. So be very careful and be sure you are buying from a trusted name brand in the cake, food, beverage or baking industry. If it is really cheap in price, chances are the dust/ glitter or the brand it's coming from, is not using FDA compliant ingredients and the product is not edible or consumable.
Read the FDA Advisory about edible vs. non-toxic luster dusts HERE
The FDA has approved all the ingredients being used in our edible glitters & edible dusts based on the FDA approved ingredients & usage levels. To learn more about the FDA approved usage levels and the approved ingredients list from the FDA read “Substances Added to Food” at FDA.GOV & “FDA Approved Usage Levels” Article 73.350. If a gold or silver luster dust is edible or FDA compliant, it should state one or both of those things on the label. It should also have an ingredient list. If the packaging or listing uses any of the following terms, the dust is considered non-toxic and is not regulated by a food safety governing body:
* non-edible
* non-toxic
* craft dust
* remove before eating
* for decorative purposes only
