How to Love & Care for your Edible Diamonds

PLEASE NOTE:

Diamonds are affected by humidity, so please read the following instructions carefully:

Edible diamonds are ready to use.
This is a sugar product and as such can be affected by humidity or moisture from your hands, which can cause them to cloud over.
Further, diamonds are made from a low GI sugar and as such are suitable for diabetics.
Diamonds must be stored in the glass vial container so as not to spoil the clarity.
Try not to touch them directly with your hands: it is advisable to use tweezers when placing the diamonds onto cakes, biscuits and other foods.
Place these onto the food at the last minute to avoid exposure to the atmosphere.
When attaching them to an iced cake use a pin head of melted chocolate or CMC gel (mix CMC with water to form a glue).
These diamonds are not recommended for use on butter icing or cream due to their high moisture level.
If the diamonds become cloudy, brushing them lightly with vegetable oil can restore the clarity.
