Size Name:Purple Gel Diamonds, 24 Count Product description The gel this product is made from can be used freely on buttercream. If using on icing /sugar paste of any description, then please use a barrier between the icing and the gel shape. We do sell a barrier glue, however a simple at home solution is to use Crisco/Trex. Paint a very thin layer where you wish to place the item and then put the item i.e. Heart, in place. You can mix the Glue/Crisco/Trex with food grade metallic dust to create interesting effects.If you do not use a barrier, the gel will draw water from your icing and appear to melt or cause a puddle. You might think that as your icing appears dry you will not need to do this. You will. The science behind this, is that, Glycerol & Sorbitol are humectants and they draw any moisture towards them. By placing a non-soluble barrier such as fat between the gel and the icing you stop this effect. It also stops any colour transfer.

I recommend using tweezers or similar
As edible diamonds go these do the trick, be careful when handling as if there is any grease on your hands it transfers to the diamond. I recommend using tweezers or similar.
